Public bug reported: This is an actual bug in Celestia, not Ubuntu.
I found on my Slackware system, that I could crash Celestia by slowing time down to around 1e-12 (as an aside the top left time rate shows up peculair things too). It appears to be a maths overflow of type double. I have submitted a small patch that fixes this - perhaps needs including in Ubuntu celestia package. Full report and patch here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2059401&group_id=21302&atid=121302 I have also attached the patch (made against Celestia 1.5.1 version).
