XEphem is a very handy program, and I was glad to see, that it took very
little effort to install it, just picking up the file at it's home
site. It does
come with SuSE, which is a good thought. You can take a look at it's
feature night
sky at a glance and see what planets are visible and when during the night.
Celestia is a fun program and is part of apt-get for Debian and is on
the SuSE distro,
it's a fun program, also. ---Jim
