Description
Exoplanets are planets orbiting stars beyond our own solar system. This app allows you to explore all discovered exoplanets, their measured physical properties, their location in the night sky, and their host stars. An interactive model shows you the entire observable universe, all the way from the surface of the Earth to the cosmic microwave background. This app has been developed by a professional astronomer.
Main features:
* Interactive visualizations and animations.
* Physical properties of all detected exoplanets and their host stars, updated on a daily basis.
* Stunning 3D model of our Milky Way showing the location of all known exoplanets. You can zoom into any planetary system, explore how the night sky and the constellations look from the surface of other planets, or zoom out and see other local galaxies and galaxy clusters as well as the cosmic microwave background.
* Visualizations of exoplanet orbits and the habitable zone.
* Choose between the Open Exoplanet Catalogue, the NASA Exoplanet Archive, and the Extrasolar Planet Encyclopedia (exoplanet.eu).
* Push notifications are sent out whenever a new planet is discovered.
* Augmented reality sky map: point the phone towards the sky to find an exoplanet!
* Interactive multi-touch correlation plots.
* Solar System planets, major moons, and asteroids are included.
* Explore S-Stars orbiting the black hole at the Galactic Center of our Milky Way
* Background information about exoplanets and detection methods.
* Full support of planets in binary, triple, quadruple systems and orphan planets.
* Real-time ray tracing on the GPU.

THE ENDLESS SEARCH FOR LIFE SUSTAINING PLANET
I find the Exoplanet database quite rich in acquiring knowledge from the "unknown". The Cosmos is a vast world of inexhaustible exploration! The findings so far achieved also show the unlimited capabilities of the human mind to conquer knowledge, by digging into the universe trying to find out whether there is another life out there.
Something tells me there is! Or Is there?
But it is the steadfast determination of the few Astronomers, etc, that can only help us find out.
Will we ever find out? This is a question begging for answers.
I think we will find out.
How, I don't know.
One thing that has intrigued me since my growing up years, is the fact that man has unlimited capacity to delve into the great unknown and we continue to dig.
In fact man has increased in knowledge every new day. The last hundred and thirteen years appear to have been multiplying in 'quantum', how much man has discovered new things, new theories, new ideas, etc and we are still discovering.
Therefore, it maybe only a matter of time before we find out that there is a terrestrial body that contains life either just like Earth or very different from the way we know it.
The other side of this argument may be that God wants us to keep trying to find out but while only Him knows how, when, where, what or who we will find out there!
It may not be anytime soon.
The truth is, I enjoy the search game we are endlessly trying to engage in, with the Unknown Supreme!
I am always marveling at those new Exoplanets that are discovered almost everyday! With the Hubble Telescope and the many more newly developed extra sharp telescopes being developed, I will not be surprised what will be discovered next!
The fertility of the human mind and his curiosity have predicted long before now the fact that there is life out there somehow.
But where?!
That we will have to wait and see, hear or even feel!
So much talk about the Universe that contains countless galaxies.
Now some are saying there may be multiverses, not just universes!
It is an endless unknown and we cannot even scratch the surface of our own Solar system talk less of Galaxies but I enjoy the endless adventure into the unknown!
Well done daring drillers!
