See the visible sky above you, including stars, planets, comets, and satellite passes. The core map is computed on your device and works without a signal.
The naked-eye sky and millions of fainter stars
- The catalog covers the naked-eye sky with names, rendered color, and distance data where available.
- Zoom in and millions of fainter stars fade into view — the sky as binoculars or a telescope would show it.
- All 88 constellations, drawn and labeled, plus the Milky Way and 110 famous galaxies, star clusters, and nebulae.
- Twilight brightens the sky and washes out the stars just like the real thing, and the Moon always shows its true phase.
The Moon, the planets, and visiting comets
- Place the Sun, Moon, and planets for tonight, another date, or the night you were born, including Jupiter’s four largest moons.
- Track visiting comets and their predicted brightness.
- Find major meteor showers and the points from which they appear to radiate.
Catch a satellite pass
- Track the Space Station, Starlink trains, GPS, and other satellites from orbital data.
- Show just the bright ones you can spot by eye, the space stations, Starlink, or everything up there.
- Pass predictions show when to step outside and whether the satellite should be sunlit and visible.
- Pick any satellite to see how fast it’s moving, how high it is, when it launched — and its path drawn across the stars.
Highlights
- Plan an observing night — the calendar covers eclipses, Moon phases, planetary pairings, comet peaks, meteor showers, and visible satellite passes.
- Point and identify — on iPhone and iPad, hold up the device and the map follows the sky; search for an object to move directly to it.
- Protect your night vision — use red night mode, move through time, or run a time-lapse before heading outside.
- Use it without a signal — included catalogs and orbital calculations work from a location fix or coordinates you enter.
