At the Celestia forums we have already had one bug report related to
this issue: http://www.shatters.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=13178 --
however the problem is with the odd way that the Ubuntu developers have
decided to handle the packages for Celestia.

The reason that the textures are missing is that they are in the package
celestia-common-nonfree. As far as I am aware the decision to split
Celestia's datafiles in this way has been taken without consulting the
Celestia development team. The problem is that this package is not
installed when Celestia is installed via the Add/Remove menu. This
behaviour is bizarre: why would the average user want an incomplete
installation? If the licenses are a problem, move the entire program to
nonfree.
