Highly accurate space/universe simulator

As title, is there such a thing available? im not on about a 3d 'look at the universe' educational thing im looking for a SUPER accurate simulator.......something that will bring a 5ghz ivy to its knees, and ideally would run on node computers - anything available?

Some space software showing ALL known space objects would be ideal.

Sadly, I don't know of one, but I would certainly be interested. If you do come across one, could you post it here?

Dunno if it works on Linux, but there is Universe Sandbox on Steam, might be a bit lightweight for you.

Also have a look @ Stellarium http://www.stellarium.org/, which does have a Linux version.

Celestia might be something along these lines?

I was about to mention that as well.. Didn't know about Celestia, until I went to download an update to Stellarium, and saw Celestia mentioned as 'recommended'.
