One thing that is worth doing in stelarium is adding telescope feild of view rings for each of your scope / eyepiece combinations - that way you see what you will see in the eyepiece.

This is easy to do by editing the ini file. see the sellarium wiki forum for details.


once they are in there, you can center them on any selected object and see the scale of the object.

this lets you easily decide if the object is worth chasing.
