Hello!
Stellarium N9 0.3.5 is now available for download at
http://thelarge.org/stellarium-n9
.
This release brings a custom algorithm for better filtering when in freelook mode. I tried several techniques and I guess there are limitations on what can be done without a gyroscope, but overall, I am quite pleased with the results. I'd recommend trying the free look mode together with turning off all the labels, the ground and the atmosphere for a perfect space-walk feeling, zooming around clusters, nebuale and all the star stuff that is out there.
There is also a handful of minor fixes and additions: a new startup page, icon, fixed date time format and a button for clearing selection. Most likely there are also new bugs that I am not yet aware of.
Happy holiday season.
Cheers,
Marko

Stellarium N9
is a free open source planetarium software for Nokia N9 that shows exactly what you see when you look up at the stars. It is a port of the awesome Stellarium (version 0.11.4).
To avoid confusion, please note, that Stellarium N9 is not in any way associated with Stellarium app (by Elemental) that is available in Nokia OVI store.
N9 Specific Features
Redesigned graphical user interface using native QML components.
Free look based on magnetometer/accelerometer sensors.
Pinch zoom.
GFX optimizations (text rendering, removed CPU-hungry extinction, decreased atmophere sky resolution)
OVI Store (paid app):
