Description

Stellarium Mobile Sky Map is a fully-featured planetarium for your phone. It shows a realistic and accurate night sky map, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.


The sensor control will also enable you to identify a star in just a few seconds, just by pointing the phone at the sky!


This award-winning astronomy application is finally available on Windows Phone featuring:


* a catalog of over 600,000 stars displayed as a real time zoomable sky map * a catalog of many nebulae and galaxies, with pictures for some of them * asterisms and illustrations of the constellations for several sky cultures * artificial satellites, including the International Space Station * realistic Milky Way * realistic landscape and atmosphere with sunrise, sunset and light pollution simulation * accurate simulation of stars extinction, and atmosphere refraction * 3D rendering of the major solar system planets and their satellites * night mode (red) * GPS positioning, accelerometers control of the direction of view in the sky


Stellarium mobile Sky Map is created by two of the original developers of Stellarium, the Desktop version of this famous astronomy and planetarium stars chart app.

    The best sky map app available hands down, so happy this made it to Windows phones. Missing a few of my favorite features from the desktop program like more advanced filters for DSO's etc. and the "telescope view" but still so much better than the other apps I've used! A must have for astronomy fans!

    Bug needs fixing by Ken

    Settings button doesn't work until the display is turned sideways or the WP menu bar is hidden. (Lumia 640 WP 10 update 1607) Once this is discovered the app seems to work fine.

    Works great on the Icon by Jenn

    I absolutely love this! Great job. I use it for planning night photography. Thanks for making such a high quality app for WP. Any plans to use Bing Maps integration? That would be sweet!

    Pretty powerful! Love to see some more polish! by Varand

    Calibration is a little off... Menu style is not that great, and touch seems to be a little off. Always selects the wrong icon (by a little bit, each tap needs to be precise.) I don't have huge fingers, and working on a Lumia 950 XL screen. Should be easier to operate. But cool graphics and useful. Especially if one is in a light polluted area.

    Thank you! by Jei

    Great app! At first I thought it was a waste of money since there were no options but then I realized I had to rotate the screen ;) Phew!

    Needs a lot of updating. Crash closes a lot of times on my Lumia 920.
