Stellarium 0.11.0 - Open source desktop planetarium.. (Free): "

Stellarium is an open source desktop planetarium. It renders the skies in realtime using OpenGL, which means the skies will look exactly like what you see with your eyes, binoculars, or a small telescope. Stellarium is very simple to use, which is one of its biggest advantages: it can easily be used by beginners.

Two Mac OS X binaries of Stellarium are available: if you are running an Intel CPU, and OS X 10.5 or later, use the Intel binary. Otherwise use the Universal Binary.

Version 0.11.0:

• Stellarium now takes into account the refraction of the atmosphere in the visualization of the sky so far, it seems, is the only planetarium simulates refraction in full.
• Redesigned search tool
• Oculars plugin rewritten & expanded. Includes binocular support, better CCD support.
• New plugin: Historical supernovae; now you can watch the flashes of bright 13 of these stars (in the calculation were taken only by those whose peak was brighter than 10m).
• Type of deep-sky objects on the 'heaven' Stellarium's now possible to determine visually, without isolating the corresponding object.
• Increase in the number of satellites of the solar system planets.
• Were fixed annoying bugs in plug-ins and most of them acquired the improvements.
