	''Celestia'' is computersoftware that lets you explore space on its many scales. Is probably too much for kids on their own, but as a presentation tool piloted by someone with knowledge to share, it's an engaging real-time experience. Multiple views allow concepts to be more easily understood, such as: days, years, moon phases, and scale.
