Watch supernovas from the sofa

Are you ready to have your breath taken away? Created in association with CERN scientists, Big Bang AR uses augmented reality to bring the creation of our universe into your front room, or anywhere else you point your camera.

You can hold a star in your hand, watch supernovas explode in front of you and see planets grow in your garden.

Gasp when you see stars form in front of you. Grin as the planets of our solar system whizz around the room.

In addition to the incredible visuals, the app also features a wonderful voiceover by actor Tilda Swinton – and when you’ve explored the universe, you can take a “star selfie” to share on social media.

It’s an extraordinary, inspiring app and a brilliant example of what augmented reality can do.
