Thanks for inserting the Haumean system. Two remarks though: the system components are now named (Haumea, Hi'iaka, Namaka), and the 3D-ellipsoidal shape of Haumea (about 2000x1500x1000km)is not modelled. A reddish spot is identified on Haumea, itself a fast spinner with a 3.9h period. Your add-on would have plenty of success if people could use Celestia to contemplate the fast rotation of Haumea and the moons of this weird system.
