1. it's nostalgic to see this video again
2. Hey thank you!
3. Your Beautiful
4. Hey try out the new 'touch' version, it is very much optimized ;) 
5. very interesting. but sadly, my old computer was running out of memory, so i got a new one which didn't have mpl3d, so i think im gonna reinstall it now.
6. like what were the names 
7. hey what are the objects in the video? other than the solar system objects and milky way.
8. wait you on the next planet
9. Hello human where are you ??
10. @SuperUniverse555, there are several ways to do this. Just press -Left- Control Key once, when orbiting a star or planet, or keep pressing it until you get there. This should take the camera to Sagittarius A*, the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Currently this is the only black hole represented. 
11. @SuperUniverse555, that star is named Enif. A pulsating star in Pegasus, 216 times the Sun. Here viewed in accelerated time. You can use the 'Star Selector' to find it by name. A very interesting case indeed.
12. @TheHazardousMind, hehe :)
13. Yay! I can see my house from up here! 1:05
14. @titanicice19, the star swallowed by the black hole is a fictitious one, so there is no particular time or date. Inside the simulation program, just wait a moment near the black hole until a fictitious star appears. Remember that you can speed up the time clock. It is fictitious because such event has an average of 10,000 years to happen. 
15. @lzoli18B, yes that is a good idea. We have pondered that line of development, and it is not discarded. It is just in a long list of possible improvements. Right now v1.3 will focus in an user customizable spaceship mode, along with improved graphics and other enhancements. 
16. there's a real future for these simulators. Think of stellar evolution, expanding nebulas and colliding galaxies being accurately depicted with modern technology and computing power; besides being educational, it would offer a very cool show
17. @tsr96pithaya, installing Microsoft DirectX 9 usually solves the problem. If you need further assistance, please send us a message describing the problem. Hope you get it working soon.
18. I got problems with the download. because of this main.exe thing that doesn't work:-(
19. Thanks!
20. There's so much to see in this program, I recommend it to anyone interested in astronomy.
