Been using Stellarium for years now and it's really amazing for studying the stars. Also, if you're in the mood for stargazing but it's cloudy outside, then it's a not too bad substitute.

Stellarium is a classic, standard de facto, virtual planetarium program for PC.

The best astronomy Sky Map ever made ! I have many commercial softwares, but Stellarium is one, if not the best of them. So many things it has that it´s impossible to list here. You´d better give it a try, but I know you already have. Great !

No help menu. Pretty useless for beginners. If you are new to astronomy, like me, you need to look for something more basic - like I will now. Still, only £2.99 wasted. Could be worse.

One of the best planetarium software ever. Excellent 3D support.
