There are several ways to see more images in Starry Night:
1) There are several databases (that may not be "on" by default) that contain images of various objects. Open the "Options" pane on the left under "Deep Space", select (check) any with the word "Images" in their names. Feel free to check the others too!
2) One other way to see images is to use one of the built-in image download services to add one to Starry Night. Simply right-click the object (or area of the sky) and choose "Add Image..." That will bring up the Starry Night image editor and you can choose "From SkyView" to add an image from an online image service. Your best bet is the DSS option as it has full sky coverage.
Alternately, if you find an image on the net, you can download it and add it using the same method, but choose "From File" in the Image Editor window.

Also, for planets (& some moons):
1) Earth's Moon & Mercury
very easy to make nice detailed .png with Quickmap 3D.
"QuickMap is directly supporting a number of NASA Missions"
Earth Moon:

Mercury:

Mars may eventually be supported: http://www.actgate.com/quickmap.html
2) LROC's LunaServe is second easiest & plots data from many solar system missions "Map Options --> Object to view" (& apparently with improved projection over WMS):

Both of the above are quick for even the novice to use where as ODE takes more learning:

IN SN8P+ when I right click an object, I don't see an Add Image option.
What am I missing?
