+The <guilabel>Satellites</guilabel> page allows you to set the satellites view options. You can decide which satellites are shown by 
+KStars, as well as their labels. You can also choose to see only visible satellites or to see them like stars.
+There is another way to select what satellites you want to be displayed on KStars globe. All you need to do is to select the
+desired satellite from the list with a simple click on its checkbox.

+The <guilabel>Supernovae</guilabel> page allows you to decide if the supernovae are displayed or not by checking the <guilabel>Show supernovae</guilabel> checkbox. You can configure KStars to check for recent supernovae on startup and you can also enable supernova alerts. The magnitude limit for showing the supernovae and for supernova alerts can be set using the spin boxes control.
