Stellarium

For the last few months I have been using Stellarium which is a very nice photo-realistic sky simulator that is free. At version 0.6 it is still in development but is very good nevertheless. I have shown it to a couple of people at Jodrell and I have just noticed that Ian Morison has started to use the images from it on his night sky this month page. Some time ago I remember he was worried about using screengrabs from other software due to copyright considerations.
