App Description

The ultimate virtual reality* experience: Star Chart VR lets you explore the solar system in a beautiful and accurate real-time space simulation.

Delight in exploring the solar system, from the Sun to the smallest moons of Saturn and out to the coldest, darkest, farthest reaches of Pluto. Gaze down and marvel at our solar system from above. Look up in wonder at the rings of Saturn. Feel the awe of floating in space around worlds no human has yet set foot on. Understand how the constellations of our night sky are made up of stars distant to each other in both space and time. Embrace the impossible distances of our solar system and the inordinate scale of our universe.

Star Chart VR is the virtual reality version of the hugely successful augmented reality astronomy & star gazing app – Star Chart – downloaded by over 25 million people world-wide.

Features currently include:
– NEW! Launch room that enables you to choose from 3 different Star Chart modes as well as easily access the tutorial.
– An accurate real-time simulation of the visible stars and planets as you see them from Earth
– A 3D solar system to explore, including the Sun, the planets and major moons
– All 88 constellations based on the beautiful artwork of 17th century astronomer Johannes Hevelius
– Thousands of the most visible stars of the night sky
– Named geological surface features on most of the rocky planets and moons of the solar system.

– NEW! The location of active Meteor Shower Radiances are now shown in our new Sky View mode.
– NEW! Messier Objects can now be found and selected.

Hi! You may have seen my work at other Android publications including XDA and Phandroid, but I have branched out on my own to create content for the community. Most of my work consists of finding the best deals in the Google Play Store, creating tutorials on my YouTube channel, and curating the best applications and games on Play Store Finder.
