Wow, talk a hungry little dude.
I have had some success running it in root but same thing but this time 
I get a abrt warning

process usr/bin/celestia killed by signal 8 (SIGFPE)

I have disabled selinux and the firewall just to see if that had any 
effect. (NIL)

This ran perfect the first and ever since the first crash it will not run.
I get the splash screen and then blank screen


Too bad because it is a very nice application for kids to explore the 
universe. Very useful for educational purposes
