Stellarium is a program where you can discover the universe.Program needs a better and more optional search button for sure and i will hopefully convince you about it.
In the search windows there are only a search button and greek letters.I would like to suggest making it more functional with adding a virtual keyboard on it with numbers,also when you make a search it just outputs strings.I would like to add a menu with pictures so peoples will have a better search window.
In this example i added virtual keyboard to make user use only mouse if wanted.Also it will make it look better and easier to use.

Now when users click enter the virtual keyboard will dissapear and results will be showen with images,for example if user wrote "earth" i will show you the real output and after modifiaction output.

When you want to discover thousands of stars and want to learn about them you absolutely want to see the view before clicking every each of them everytime.So adding a little image of planet/stars will make users job way much easier and user will take a look in the menu which planet or star it wants to discover by the image.Also if user wants to use a virtual keyboard which you can use with mouse,user will use "only" mouse and write whatever they want to.With adding this virtual keyboard user will have a easier interface and it will make them more comfortable.
