| Why could i not see the recent (current when posted) solar eclipse shadow on earth within space engine? Will this be fixed in the next version? Just a minor gripe.

| Sneadsta, SpaceEngineer said it is because of simplicity of the current model, it doesn't take into account the perturbations, so that orbits of satellites are inaccurate. At least you can find a Venus transit at June 6th. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transit_of_Venus,_2012
