Space Pulse: Cosmic Glance

Plan a moonlit walk, catch a planet rising, or find the perfect moment to stargaze. Your local sky is waiting, just a glance away on your Home Screen.

Space Pulse is a location-aware Solar System dashboard which keeps celestial bodies on your Home Screen. Track the Moon, Sun, and all seven planets from your location - in the app and in widgets for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

FOR EVERY BODY

• Rise, set, and next-pass times for your location
• Live sky position (azimuth and elevation) and horizon status
• Distance, apparent magnitude, angular size, and elongation
• Positions computed on-device from JPL orbital elements

THE MOON

• Current phase with accurate rendered imagery
• Illumination percentage, cycle day, and next phase countdown

THE SUN

• Live solar imagery
• Solar activity: current Kp index and geomagnetic storm forecast - know when aurora may be visible
• recent NASA SDO imagery, current NOAA SWPC Kp activity and a 48-hour peak forecast

WIDGETS, YOUR WAY Add as many widgets as you like - one per body if you want. Each widget is individually configurable: pick the body, then choose exactly which readings it shows (phase, rise/set, position, distance, solar activity, and more). Small, medium, and large sizes, light and dark.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your location never leaves your device. It is used only to compute sky positions and daily events.
