Since version 0.10.3, Stellarium's packages include a number of plug-ins:

All these plug-ins are "built-in" and DON'T need to be downloaded separately.
Some other plug-ins exist:
- LogBook - allows you to record observation notes, and track your observation sessions
- VirGO - The ESO-sponsored archive browsing and visualization tool
Enabling plugins
To enable a plugin:
- Open the Configuration dialog (press F2 or use the left tool bar button)
- Select the Plugins tab
- Select the plugin you want to enable from the list
- Check the Load at startup option
- Restart Stellarium
If the plugin has configuration options, the configuration button will be enabled when the plugin is loaded.
