Telescope users, please try whether this solves your problems.
If not, we are looking for those of you with programming skills to help
us fixing remaining issues. Reward possible!

- Allow semitransparent landscapes
- Added discovery circumstances for Solar system bodies

23.2 [2023-07-02]
The Stellarium Team has released version 23.2.
The major changes of this version:
- vectorize marker of deep-sky objects
- updated support locations
- discovery circumstances for solar system objects
Behind the scenes, many more minor issues were fixed.
TELESCOPE USERS
Like in the 1.* series, it seems the TelescopeControl plugin at least on
Windows works better in the Qt5-based releases. Just install this if you
are affected. We are looking for telescope users with programming skills
to help us fixing this issue. Reward possible!
23.1 [2023-03-27]
The Stellarium Team has released version 23.1.
From now on, releases will have version numbers indicating a year.release
scheme. For Windows, the version of the Qt framework used is visible as part
of the package name. Details are in the User Guide.
PLEASE UPDATE!
This issue mitigates a potential security issue (reported as CVE-2023-28371),
where scripts were allowed to write output text and screenshots to other places
on users' systems apart from the Stellarium user data directory or configured
screenshot directory. Running unknown scripts (which is a Bad Idea(tm) to begin
with) could have exploited that by attackers (script authors) writing even
command files to vulnerable places. We have not received a report where this
would have caused a problem.
However, now users must explicitly allow such behaviour in the settings
tab of the Script Console.
Apart from that, this release mostly aimed at fixing issues in the 1.*
series, but also brought a few new features:
- Much improved "Solar System observer" and other "Planet observers".
- Solar dates along the ecliptic
- Fixed issues with Observation Lists, and removed need for the extra
edit dialog.
- Updated shader code for smoother projection
- Allow texture decimation on the fly for very weak systems like
Raspberry Pi 3.
- Solar limb darkening
- Proper shadow edge for satellites
Behind the scenes, many more minor issues were fixed.

1.2 [2022-12-25]
The Stellarium Team has released version 1.2.
This release mostly aimed at fixing issues but also brought a few new features:
- New projection: Equirectangular (fills the screen)
- Improved rendering of Milky Way, Zodiacal Light and landscapes
- Improved rendering of the Moon
- Improved HiDPI behaviour
- Use Noto as default font
- Added Modern (IAU), Tikuna and Seri sky cultures
- Added Chinese and Bahai calendars (Calendars plugin)
Behind the scenes, several minor issues were fixed.
1.1 [2022-10-31]
The major changes of this version:
- Added support OpenGL 3.3 Core profile
- Changed core: switch to use CalcMySky v0.2.1
- Changed GUI: allow user CSS
- Fixed compiling with Qt 6.4
- Fixed Telescope Control plugin
1.0 [2022-10-01]
The Stellarium team did it. Stellarium 1.0 is here!
What makes this 1.0?
- After more than 20 years of development the program is finally accurate
enough for historical application.
- This is the first release based on the Qt6 framework, so the project is
safe for future development. These packages are tagged with a version
number like 1.22.3.
- We keep releasing Qt5-based packages for legacy or obsolete systems.
This may include many Windows users who have to run ANGLE mode.
These packages are tagged with a version number like 0.22.3.
What is new for users?
- A new, much better skylight model (Not for MacOS and OpenGL ES2 systems,
sorry.)
- Many details around eclipses
- Updated Observation List features
- New features in AstroCalc tool
- HiDPI improvements
- Better dithering
- Able to use Windows location service (Windows)
- New skyculture: Samoan
- Updated several skycultures
- Updates in Angle Measure, Satellites, Oculars, Remote Control, Pulsars
plugins
- Many more bugfixes.
A huge thanks to the people who helped us a lot by reporting bugs, and
especially contributed in development!
Clear Skies!

0.15.0 [2016-07-31]
In memory of our team member Barry Gerdes.
Version 0.15.0 is based on Qt5.6. Starting with this version, some graphics cards
have been blacklisted by Qt and are automatically forced to use ANGLE on Windows.
We introduce a major internal change with the StelProperty system.
This allows simpler access to internal variables and therefore more ways of operation.
Most notably this version introduces an alternative control option via RemoteControl,
a new webserver interface plugin.
We also introduce another milestone towards providing better astronomical accuracy for
historical applications: experimental support of getting planetary positions from JPL DE430 and
DE431 ephemerides. This feature is however not fully tested yet.
- Added StelProperty system
- Added new plugin for exhibitions and planetariums - Remote Control
- Added new skycultures: Macedonian, Ojibwe, Dakota/Lakota/Nakota,
Kamilaroi/Euahlayi
- Updated code of plugins
- Added Bookmarks tool and updated AstroCalc tool
- Added new functions for Scripting Engine and new scripts
- Added Miller Cylindrical Projection

support of The Washington Double Star Catalog)

0.14.0 [2015-10-24]
A big leap forward in astronomical accuracy for historical applications:
- Precession now follows the IAU2006 model in the long-time version from Vondrak
et al. 2011.
- Nutation is applied (IAU2000B solution). Given that nobody has observed it without
telescope and the model does not give limits of applicability, we limit its application
to 1500..2500
- Application of DeltaT has been simplified and made a bit more intuitive.
We now dare to add another coordinate system: Ecliptic coordinates of date.
We can therefore now show that planetary positions given by the commonly used solution
VSOP87 is applicable to -4000..+8000 only, and its use outside this range will give
somewhat artificial results. There is more to follow in future versions.
The other big addition is a greatly improved collection of DSO data with lots of
possibilities in a new GUI tab to select for object type and/or catalog. In total,
15 catalogs are now built-in!
Also the Meteor Shower, Satellites, Telescope Control and 3D Sceneries plugins have
been improved.
Landscapes can have switchable labels, so you can e.g. indicate mountain peaks.
In total 83 bugs and wishlist items were fixed or at least decided.
A platform-specific change for Windows: OpenGL binding is now dynamic. That means, there are
no more separate OpenGL/ANGLE/MESA downloads, but after installation you will have separate
commands in the start menu which force ANGLE or MESA modes.

Fixed the handling of the Qt -graphicssystem parameter. Now it is ignored if it is not used properly.
Improved OpenGLES2 support (not finished yet).
Added Qt widgets flags on the main windows to avoid filling background (this boosted the program a lot on linux).

Moved official plugins code into plugins/ and changed the cmake config so that they are automatically compiled in static.
Re-coded the texture engine based on Qt loading features (Got rid of explicit libjpeg and libpng dependencies!).
Allowed to first render the sky in a frame buffer.
Moved the code related to viewport distortions into a new class StelViewportEffect based on frame buffer object.
Added working cmake targets for compilig and runing unit tests.
