Go with what TC first suggested in post #3 - it's the simplest & best option - as he said no need to bother with PPA...

You'll find Stellarium in the Ubuntu repository as follows:

1. Go to Menu System Install/Remove Software

2. Synaptic Package Manager (SPM) will then ask you for your password - enter it

3. In the SPM toolbar, click on Search and enter "stellarium" in the search box

4. You will then see the packages "stellarium" and "stellarium-data" listed - right-click on "stellarium"  and select mark for installation - both packages will be selected by default

5. Click Apply in the SPM toolbar to install both packages, and then you should be good to go...

Hope this helps
64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ Arm710@1.2GHz - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ i3-3110M@2.4GHz - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom N455@1.66GHz - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel T3200@2.0GHz - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel T7100@1.8GHz - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
