If you don't mind downloading things, try fiddling with Celestia -
http://ennui.shatters.net/celestia/ and http://sf.net/projects/celestia/
(yes, it's Open Source) - it's available as source, so you can compile it up
for Windows and un*x platforms, and binaries are available for Windows and
Mac OS X.
