Maybe they are suffering from the dreaded "plib-dot effect". :-)

Brad,

The flightgear sun/moon/star/planet code has been all ssg-ified and
separated out.  The goal was to create something that could be easily
dropped into other ssg-based projects.  (I still have one issue with
the moon rendering as I just recently posted, but hopefully Steve or
someone else can provide some insight on that front.)  This
independence of the celestial code is somewhat theoretical and has
never really been put to the test so if you have any questions, or
give it a try and run into any issues please don't hesitate to contact
me.

Regards,

Curt.
