Hello James: The "Solar System" in your message got my attention. I'm currently making a CD-ROM product for realistic visualization of the Earth and (in future) the solar system. This will be for both adults and children, will use a 100MB+ texture map of the planet and will be rendered as a flic file and converted to our compressed format for interactive viewing. We currently use a simple star field since right now that is not too important. However, making your own acurate solar system and star field would be the obvious solution but perhaps too time consuming. If you come up with any great star field ideas let me know. Our compression and real-time player software is available in the utility section under NEWAGE.ZIP. Regards, Reza D.
