## Description

Point your phone at the sky and AstroGaze shows what&#39;s in front of you: stars, planets, constellations, nebulae and galaxies. A guide arrow leads you to any target you pick.<br><br>LIVE SKY MAP<br>• The sky above your observing spot right now — or at any other moment: scrub through time and watch Jupiter rise or the Moon set.<br>• Compass mode: turn your phone and the sky turns with it.<br>• The Milky Way, phases of the Moon, Venus and Mercury, galaxies drawn with their true shape and tilt.<br><br>AUGMENTED REALITY<br>• The sky is drawn over the live camera view: aim at the real stars.<br>• Pick a target and the guide arrow takes you there along the shortest arc.<br>• Works without the camera too — on a dark background.<br><br>FOR BINOCULAR AND TELESCOPE OBSERVERS<br>• 436 objects with detailed cards: rise and set times, altitude, best time to observe.<br>• All 110 Messier objects and 88 constellations.<br>• A faint-star layer down to 9th magnitude — tens of thousands of stars: when you zoom in, the map shows the same star-hopping paths as your telescope finder.<br>• Zoom up to 128×: a field of view like a finder scope or even an eyepiece.<br><br>WORKS ANYWHERE<br>• Fully offline: the catalogs ship with the app and planetary positions are computed on the device by a precise astronomy engine.<br>• No Google services and no account required.<br>• About 150 preset locations — from big cities to the observatories of the Atacama: pick coordinates manually, location permission is optional.<br>• A dark interface that won&#39;t ruin your night vision.<br>• Eight interface languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, Indonesian, German, French and Russian — including the reference pages for every object.<br><br>The app is a companion to astrogaze.space — the same map and the same data, always at hand.<br><br>Data sources: HYG catalog, OpenNGC, astronomy-engine.
