Alexandra Barnett had a dream. Today that dream has taken form as one of the worlds premiere space centers. It was our privilege to help with the largest fourth generation Stellarium yet produced.
The NSC map is the only European Stellarium on display. The visitor sees the full sphere of 524 stars surrounding our Sun. They float silently in space without distraction. The 360° windows allow free movement for omnidirectional viewing.
The Stellarium is designed to maximize the number of stars within the available space. The majesty and wonder of the stars can be experienced strongly in this serene and simple setting.
European stargazers and space enthusiasts will love the NSC. Americans will find Leicester delightful, with midevil buildings, a castle, and a space center as modern as next week. Oh yes, they even have an excellent mexican food restaurant!
