OK, assuming you have a UNIX machine (so that you can install geomview,
available from
  ftp://geom.umn.edu/pub/software/geomview
or see its web page at
  http://www.geom.umn.edu/software/geomview
)

then you can get a copy of the orrery from
  ftp://geom.umn.edu/priv/slevy/orrery.tar.gz

After installing geomview, it's easiest to install the orrery in the
same directory, e.g.

  cd /usr/local/Geomview
  gzip -dc ...wherever.../orrery.tar.gz | tar xvopB -

It will add stuff to the various modules/* and data/modules directories.
Next time you start geomview, you should see an "Orrery" module.
