Rat - It's probably because your browser is not able to support MacroMedia's 'Flash' object/application player - if so, perhaps you might like to think of upgrading / changing your browser software / version - either that or you can download the Flash plug-in, for free, from <a href="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" target="_blank"> here </a>
Alternatively, to go directly to the Astraeus web site, click <a href="http://www.flyastraeus.com/intro.htm" target="_blank"> here </a>
Ps. (Hence the edit) Since typing the above there have been some modifications made to the first pages of Astraeus web site, which will hopefully help people who're using browsers which struggle with Flash.
