About this app

Solar System Scope is a fun way of Exploring, Discovering and Playing with the Solar System and Outer Space.

Welcome to the Space Playground

Solar System Scope (or just Solar) contains many views and celestial simulations, but most of all - it brings you closer to the furthest reaches of our world and lets you experience lots of fantastic space sceneries.

It aspires to be the most illustrative, easy to understand and simple to use space model.

3D Encyclopedia

In Solar’s unique encyclopedia you will find the most interesting facts about every planet, dwarf planet, every major moon and more – and everything is accompanied by realistic 3D visualizations.

Solar’s encyclopedia is available in 19 languages: English, Arabic, Bulgarian, Chinese, Czech, French, German, Greek, Indonesian, Italian, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Turkish and Vietnamese. More languages are coming soon!

Nightsky Observatory

Enjoy Stars and constellation of the night sky as viewed from any given location on Earth. You can point your device at the sky to see all objects in their proper place, but you can also simulate Night sky in the past or in the future.

Now with advanced options that let you simulate ecliptic, equatorial and azimuthal line, or grid (among other things).

Scientific Instrument

Solar System Scope calculations are based on up-to-date orbital parameters published by NASA and let you simulate celestial positions at any given time.

For Everyone

Solar System Scope is well suited for all audiences and ages: It is enjoyed by space enthusiasts, teachers, scientists, but Solar is successfully used even by children of 4+ years of age!

Unique Maps

We are proud to present a very unique set of planetary and moon maps, that let you experience a true-color space as never before.

These accurate maps are based on NASA elevation and imagery data. Colors and shades of the textures are tuned according to true-color photos made by Messenger, Viking, Cassini and New Horizon spacecrafts, and the Hubble Space Telescope.

Basic resolution of these maps is for free – but if you would like the best experience, you can check out the highest quality, which is available with In-App purchase.

This app is a brilliant gateway into the wonders of our solar system, perfectly satisfying my curiosity about space. It provides an awe-inspiring glimpse of how minuscule we are on a cosmic scale, making it not just an educational tool but a humbling experience. However, I find myself wishing for more. The inclusion of more planets, stars, and the thrilling possibility of exploring galaxies beyond our own would elevate this app to new heights.

Fantastic app. One of the best astrological map apps I've ever had the pleasure of utilizing as an actual tool to observe the celestial record of the stars specific to the date and time selected. The "drag planet" option in this apps' settings is one of my favorite features in particular. It allows for user to automatically grab hold with the touch of a finger tip and drag the planet or comet for that matter around following the delineation of a predermained course of orbit. Very kewl 👍

Such a fun and useful app! Worth the $2.50 for some additional features and no ads. Can't wait to see how it evolves! Maybe planet surfaces, there's so much data on many of them it'd make it that much more immersive! . EDIT:After having this app for awhile, improvements to the view sky function such as the ability to use the viewfinder on the device to produce an overlay of the real-time positioning of components to show the user exactly what is where. +add social components for friends!
