Change Log :
- Almost fully rewritten code to improve performance and stability, and prepare for future functionalities
- Added stars, constellations and names of stars
- Support for touch screen (to be tested)
- Added Pluton and Neptune
- Improved precision for Saturn and Jupiter
- Added effect of atmosphere in calculation
- Only for mobile supporting 3D API: added basic 3D view of solar
system (without earth for now). Press # to see it, then 1 and 3 to zoom
out zoom it. Other keys to go back to main view. No support for touch
screen in this view yet!
- Not yet all previous functionalities are implemented. This is really
a alpha version (so only zenith view is supported, help is not
implemented, not really tested, ...)
