A planetarium app that shows exactly what you see when you look at the stars.
A fantastic star map in pocket size
Stellarium is a portable digital planetarium that lets us observe the night sky as we would see it with the naked eye, binoculars, or a telescope. It also includes a tool to identify stars, planets, constellations, satellites, shooting stars, and other celestial bodies.
It is proposed as an alternative to Sky Map, but with a different approach. While Sky Map lets you identify stars by pointing the phone at the sky, this tool works through the location. So, it shows us the night sky of the location, inviting us to explore the entire sky by sliding our fingers across the screen.
Identify stars, constellations, planets, comets, satellites (such as the International Space Station), and other deep sky objects in real-time!
In addition, we can also see the stars in the sky for any date and time we want and it offers detailed information about the celestial bodies. And it even has cultural data from other civilizations.
In short, this is one of the best apps for exploring the universe. This portable planetarium is a must for astronomy and stargazing fans.
Requirements and additional information:
- Minimum operating system requirements: Android 8.0.
- Offers in-app purchases.
