Distant Suns Review
Distant Suns 6 (Special Edition-Free Version) is a great astronomy program that lets you see the stars and the constellations just as if it was a clear, dark night at your desk.
Distant Suns SE allows you to view the night sky as it currently appears outside your house or any time in the past or future. You can choose which direction to look and whether you wish to see the outlines of the constellations displayed.
Other features allow you to zoom in on some of the planets for a closer look or hover above the earth for a look at our home. It's very cool!
