Beautiful downtown Mordor
One of my two current WIPs is a space opera, and the travelling has gotten a little out of hand. I needed to visualize where everyone had been, so I put together a stellarium app. Worked out better than I hoped, and I'm actually kind of geeked out over it. Here's a clip captured from it. Unfortunately, youtube really trashes the detail, so you have to watch it fullscreen to even hope to read the labels.

As cool as it may have been to the space kitten, it left me angry, guy.:D

I got so queasy, I had to use all my stash of spaceoline (see Isaac Asimov's "I'm in Marsport Without Hilda," Asimov Mysteries) for space-sickness.:transport:

Actually, your starmap was fascinating.

Man that's crazy! Must be pretty cool seeing it visualised like that.
