It doesn't need to be real time, it doesn't need to true 3D, it just needs to be there. There so people can pick it up and play with it and see what the universe really is. Who cares if that stars a little to the left or, well whatever. The point is nothing I have ever seen (I've used maybe a dozen pieces of software over my life and I'm a really keen stargazer) has been so incredible, so revealing or so incredibly contextual and approachable. This isn't a clique toy for researchers or boffins, this is a tool for everyone to see the universe. Take it for what it is, for gods sakes. If I get one kid to look at the sky a couple of times and say 'what is that that's up there', and then actually be able to look and find out, then I'll be happy...
