Post by chasmanian »


I just bought Space Engine (an astronomy program and a realistic virtual Universe
you can explore with your computer).
there are free versions too.
am looking forward to checking it out.
I watched a couple youtube videos about it.
it looks spectacular.

here are links to it, and the videos:

Looks interesting. But I am cautious about supporting Russian developers that haven't been thoroughly vetted. So I am going to wait and see.
