I LOVE this application. Stellarium is one of my favorite applications ever - one of the kind that makes you happy just because somebody had the idea and made it. Not only that, but made it free, and open too! Lots of respect for the developer, for sure. Appropriately still not at version 1.0 yet; that's going to be an exciting milestone!

This is from the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at MIT's Media Lab. I understand it was developed on the Squeak platform - an implementation of Smalltalk. This has to be the best teaching / playing tool for young programmers that I've seen yet. Ubercool.
