NAPA - Star Map

NARIT Astronomy & Planetarium Application, or “NAPA” is an astronomy and planetarium app that will help guide you to the night sky.

Identify those dots in the sky. Learn about stars, constellations, planets, and other deep sky objects by simply pointing your phone at the sky.

Adjust the time and NAPA can be used as a star map to help plan your future observation. Familiarize yourself and learn more about the patterns that make up the night sky. Select and use NAPA to locate deep sky objects that you can locate with a binocular or small telescope.

NAPA is made by professional and amateur astronomers, along with public outreach professionals with the aim to help bridge the gap, making astronomy accessible to everyone. This app is made free to use with the aim to assist schoolteachers and public outreach personnels with their engagement with the public.

Unlock the pro version (coming soon) to access the full potential of this app. Turn your phone into powerful tools that can help you with your observation and stargazing events with features that will assist in your astronomical needs.

User Reviews

Found this the other day and checked it out. It does not take a lot of memory on the iphone, decent graphics but slightly different user interface that is currently hard on senior eyes. I was able to run the night sky backward just over 2000 years ago, very nice. I was not able to figure out how to change my viewing location if I wanted to see the night at a different location. This version had no ads which is also nice. It has earth and 7 planets, 88 constellations and a handful of NGC’s along with night vision. If the GUI was easier to see I’d increase my rating.

This app is easy and fun to use for those who are interested in stargazing as a hobby. It can be a great companion for everyone to check various celestial objects on the app before going out to look at the actual night sky. User can modify the date & time to see the whole sky as the time goes by. Enjoy stargazing!
