Detailed description
A simple, clean 3D solar-system orrery that shows where every major planet and its major moons are RIGHT NOW or at any other time you choose!
KEY FEATURES
• Live positions and day/year cycle data for all 8 planets, the Sun, the Moon, and the major moons.
• Time travel — jump backward or forward by hour, day, week, month, year, or decade with simple +/- buttons. Hold any button for 4-jumps-per-second auto-repeat to watch orbits unfold.
• Tap a planet, moon, or the Sun to fly the camera to it.
• Pinch and drag to explore the system in 3D.
• Live time-zone display in your local zone (with a 30+ time-zone picker if needed).
• Built-in user guide that explains everything in plain language.
ACCURACY
Positions are computed from real published ephemerides and match real-world planetary positions to within about a degree. Moon distances inside each system are kept proportional to reality where possible. Planet to Sun distances are visually compressed so the whole system fits on one screen.
OFFLINE & PRIVATE
The app makes ZERO network requests. It collects no data, requests no permissions, has no ads, no tracking, no analytics.
BEST FOR
Casual stargazers, students learning the layout of the solar system, telescope users wanting a quick "where is Jupiter right now" reference, and anyone who likes watching the planets move.
This app is an indicative guide, not a precision astronomical instrument. For sub-arcsecond positions, use a professional ephemeris tool.
