It is a program where you can view our galaxy, all the palnets and stars (mostly sa=tars as planets don't give off much light). It's a 3d world, and the camera is an omnisperant view. THere are addons yu can download too.
Check it out!

And there are star trek/wars and babylon 5 and other ships that you can add.

Celestia's really interesting.

I'm sure they could've included more comets and asteroids though.

You can download them. And it is still being upgraded.
