Star Odyssey (v. 1.3.1) Разработано randyl |
Ever used Google Sky Map to identify a star, but wanted to know more than just the star's name? Star Odyssey fills that gap. It includes:
* Over 70 of the brightest stars in the night sky
* Pronunciation guides (it's not obvious how to pronounce many star names)
* Origin of the name (the meaning of a star's name is often insightful)
* Brightness and distance from Earth
* Interesting astronomical facts
* Includes all stars displayed in Google Sky Map
* Integration with the SkEye planetarium app for locating stars (Unfortunately Google Sky Map does not support this feature)
Keywords
* astronomy, star chart, star map, sky map, star guide
Image Credits:
* Orion Nebula - NASA, ESA, M. Robberto (Space Telescope Science Institute/ESA) and the Hubble Space Telescope Orion Treasury Project Team
* Pleiades Star Cluster - NASA, ESA and AURA/Caltech

[2013-05-06] A Google User: Increase Database Keep adding more stars to the data base. Many of the stars listed on my droid sky view are not in the data base.. and I often have to look online for further information. But so far its helped me many times. Just keep up the hard work. -Canon is 12x36 Binos -Droid Sky View -Star Odyssey = Nights of Knowledge :) |
