    Great works on displaying Chinese star chart in google Earth. although I downloaded stellarium_chinese20080104.kmz first can couldn't see much info on GE. the trick is to download the main file - xingtu....kmz file in the file folder, then you can see more info regarding the star name and corresponding region it belongs to.
