Once downloaded and installed, you need to enter your location (or later It is the stacking of several color photos.Īt right, the simulation with Stellarium by the author.
Left, picture of Saturn and six of its satellites taken by Jamie Cooper on Januwith a Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain C14 telescope 356 mm f/10 equipped with a webcam. Kind of celestial body in high resolution. Simulate without apparent slowness the movement and the aspect of almost any Its relative limitations, Stellarium is very impressive by its ability to (don't try to simulate a celestial event like an solar eclipse or a transitĥ0000 years in the past or you will probably miss it !). These ranges, the excessive extrapolations don't give accurate positions Or even less : between 500-3500 AD for Galilean satellites, betweenġ826-2047 AD for the Earth's Moon, and between 1885-2099 AD for Pluto (cf. But for most planetary events, youĬan only get the highest accuracy (about 1") for the last 2000 years With the run DE200 from NASA JPL, you can simulate the sky between 4000 BCĪnd 8000 AD with accuracy.
