I downloaded it before but never really gave it a decent shot. I'll get it again now and see what I think, thanks for the reminder.

Hi, it's pretty cool but you need a good connection as to get maximum use out of it. It has shows/presentations that you can watch that bring you on guided tours of whatever astronomical thing that takes your fancy. Very informative and cool

Its very pretty but after the speed of stellarium, its a bit frustrating. Excellent for a bit of fun, but I dont like the slow zoom out/targetting
