Warp to distant stars and explore various exoplanets like lava worlds, water worlds, earthlike planets or massive jovians with "Stars and Planets" planetarium app and astronomy guide. Take a thrilling ride through space and visit strange new alien star systems such as multiple planetary systems, circumbinary planets and disks, black holes, pulsars, magnetars and the moons of our solar system.Ever wondered how far from Earth are the stars you see in the night sky? Or how far or close they are to each other? Now you can visualize those distances in 3D with a star map divided into 10 parsec sectors (cubes) or 32.62 light years, for an easier observation.Featuresā
Almost 4.5 million stars, over 4400 exoplanets, 200 circumstellar disks, 39 black holes, 11 magnetars, around 2500 pulsars and 152 moons in the databaseā
Exoplanets are updated daily from multiple sources, without needing to update the appā
3D representations of all star systems and their orbitsā
black holes in binary systems, including the famous Cygnus X-1 and the Great Annihilator (the only binary system with a black hole and a pulsar)ā
pulsar exoplanets - the first type of exoplanet ever discovered beyond our solar system, orbiting the extremely dense core of a massive star that exploded as a supernovaā
magnetars, a special and rare type of neutron starā
Search for stars, planets, disks, black holes, neutron stars and magnetars by a wide range of parameters: name, type, system type, constellation, catalog, star type (color)This interactive 3D map is excellent for teachers to use for instruction, and it is a great resource for students to explore the Milky Way galaxy and space as they learn more about the universe we live in. An internet connection is necessary to access the online stellar database as well as the wiki information. A subset of the database can be queried offline including planetary and orbital data.Data imported from various sources including: SIMBAD, The Extrasolar Planets Encyclopedia, NASA Exoplanet Archive, Planet Habitability LaboratoryV2.5.4 - upgraded some textures to a higher size, some were pixelated (thus the small increase in app size) - changed the comparison tab (and fixed some display issues there) - lots of fixes all around
