Description
CosmAtlas is a powerful Milky Way simulator for iPhone and iPad devices, which applies real physics to calculate every single celestial body position at any time between the year 0 to year 9999.
With this educational App you'll be able to navigate across the astronomical distances in our cosmos, land on the major planets and satellites and see the sky from there or read about it.

- 1449 nearby bright stars;
- The 88 modern constellations;
- Real physics (celestial mechanics) on the objects positioning in relation of time;
- See the sky from the surface of the major planets/dwarf planets, the sun and major satellites;

Wow I’ll never know what Saturn’s ring made of if I haven’t download this app
Wow, love this app!
Finally an app where I can surf the cosmos that is both educational and fun. The features allowed me to get a greater view of the solar system whilst providing me with scientific information at the tap of the screen.
Flying across the universe towards constellations I previously new nothing about has given me a greater insight into just how expansive our universe is. I particularly enjoyed being able to watch Titan rising from Saturn. The detail in this app is amazing.
I would recommend this app to anyone interested in astronomy and especially to parents as this would be a fantastic resource for school projects.
