Hello!
I recently installed Ubuntu and was wondering if there are any programs for space exploration (that are compatible with Ubuntu!)
Something like Google Earth or Starry Night.:KS

Thanks,
EnergySamus

I just installed Stellarium, it's just amazing!
I recommend trying it, I already love it.

It's possible to get Google Earth working on Ubuntu. The package "googleearth-package" in the repositories will help with the installation process (it creates a .deb of google earth).
