    Me too! Always wanted to get into, thinking it worthwhile to have a running solar system or celestial model on your own machine that you know how to operate etc. Just never really tried sadly!

      I used Stellarium today to see how the eclipse would look from my location, highly recommend it if you want to start playing

        Oh yea I’ve used it and from memory it’s awesome as you say. I was more talking about getting into the technical details of running a model and calculating various things of personal interest.

        Thanks for the recommendation though!
