“Simply amazing.” - Macworld
“Solar Walk serves up a visually impressive 3D model of our solar system. Set against a haunting, atmospheric soundscape, the app shows planets and satellites in their correct positions, and offers mini movies, facts and other related tidbits.” - TNW
“This jaw-dropping app provides a wholly interactive 3D model of our solar system, one that’s had me hooked for days. It’s the kind of thing you can imagine a science teacher using in the classroom of the future — except that we don’t have to wait.” - CNet
“Zoom from Mercury to Pluto (which makes the cut in this app), passing each planet’s moons along the way. Because Solar Walk knows what time it is, the planets are in proper orientation to the Sun: Earth is dark where it is currently night and gradually lightens to daytime on the other side.” - NY Times
"It's great for showing my students the relative positions of the planets in the solar system, the satellites orbiting the Earth and our place in the galaxy. Awesome with a smartboard as well." - by jbrown61
Solar Walk enables you to:

Ratings and Reviews
Suggestions-please update
I know a lot of stars some of them I don't know and there is one that I haven't seen on this and it's name is U I scuti you can rea-search it on google. (information: U I scuti is the largest star in the galaxy. It's going to explode soon in the years that people call the future and please add black holes) and then there is a planet called Proxima B and also please add it to the map.( information : the planet has 3 suns its main one is a red dwarf star. The other 2 are regular stars. When all the sun's light is put together its still is not bright enough to be brighter then the sun. The planet is all ways facing the red dwarf star and if you want to die then you can this is your dream place you will die from not enough sleep. Killing someone in a ceremony would be easy here)

Thank you for the suggestion!
Quite remarkable
Wow. This app is intense in the way that apps can be when someone builds something that, as some other reviews explicitly state: this app looks like a game, but packs some prime science throughout. I’ll bet that most of the users who were thinking they had a new strategy game actually learned something. That’s the kind of thing that makes teaching great. Fortunately your users are not required to respond to, and you are not responsible for a roll whenever some cranks up your app! I’m not sure how that would work,8>)

Thank you for the review! We are glad you find our app interesting:)
Faster time
It’s fine. I would like it if you would use voices to go to other years faster. I’M NOT A FAN THAT I CAN ONLY GO TO THE YEARS 500 TO 5000. Can you include black holes and white holes ? We can’t see much. Also include the right color of the stars. For example Betelgeuse is orange not pink. Can you also improve the status on stars. There aren’t much status and it doesn’t make sense. Also can you show what it looks like at that time. For example I went year 500 and it what it is today that’s all the improvements I want. 2WEEKS LATER..... IF YOU RESPONDED WHY IS IT NOT IMPROVED. BETELGEUSE IS STILL PINK WHEN IT’S ACTUALLY ORANGE. START DOING IT OR I’M GOING TO REDUCE MY REVIEW TO THREE STARS IF YOU DON’T DO IT IN A MONTH.
