SPACE AR: Stargazing Star Map

Constellations, planets & ISS

Features & Capabilities

Point your phone at the sky: stars, planets & satellites in AR. Tonight's Highlights from real weather, plus a planetarium and time machine. No ads, no subscription.

SPACE AR turns your phone into a window on the night sky. Hold it up and stars, constellations, planets and satellites appear overlaid on the real sky. It’s built not just for looking, but for observing — combining research-grade astronomy with the actual local weather to show how the sky really looks, here and now.

■ Highlights • ~8,900 stars and all 88 constellations, plus the Sun, Moon and planets in AR, with constellation lines and names. • Live satellites, with pass predictions for the ISS and others — appearance direction, max altitude, visibility and the cloud cover at pass time. • Tap any object or constellation for full data: magnitude, distance, spectral type, proper motion, RA/Dec (J2000 and apparent), altitude/azimuth, hour angle, airmass, and rise / transit / set. • Engaging notes — mythology, history and fun facts you can share on a walk.

■ Research-grade precision • Apparent positions with precession, nutation, annual aberration and proper motion; the Moon is corrected for topocentric parallax (up to ~1°). • Atmospheric refraction corrected with the measured pressure and temperature. • Instrument HUD with sidereal time, Julian Date, ΔT and your observing location.

■ Tools for observers • Real weather (Open-Meteo): observability, transparency, dew risk and an “effective limiting magnitude” — know what’s visible tonight. • Planetarium mode: darken the camera and watch colorful stars twinkle. • Time machine: set any date and time, fast-forward or rewind the sky. • Location simulation: tap the map or enter coordinates to see the sky from anywhere on Earth. • Layer and magnitude controls to focus on exactly what you want to observe.

■ Made right • One-time purchase. No ads, no subscription, no account. • English, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. • The star catalog is built in, so the sky works offline (weather and the latest satellite data use the internet).

Hold up your phone and the sky becomes a star chart — for a casual walk, a date, or a serious night of observing.

Note: the AR overlay relies on your device’s compass and may be off by a few degrees; the numeric values for each object are computed rigorously.
