Description-en: 3D Universe Simulator
OpenUniverse (OU for short) is a fun, fast and free
OpenGL space simulator. It currently focuses on the Solar System
and lets you visit all of its planets, most major moons and a vast
collection of smaller bodies in colorful, glorious and realtime
3D. If you've ever had a chance to visit Mercury or asteroid Geographos,
here you'll find them looking exactly the same way, following exactly
the same path as when you've left them.
.
Notice that OpenUniverse is not actively being maintained anymore and
that users are recommended to use Celestia instead.
