Solar Walk™

The Solar Walk app includes an interactive model of the galaxy. You can tap on planets and stars to learn about their trajectories, structural make up, and the history of their exploration. The app also lets you plug in a specific date, past or present, and it will display how the planets were aligned. Solar Walk also has 3D models of some of the man made satellites orbiting in space.

Our entire solar system can be explored through this excellently presented app. The interactive environment allows you to zoom from one cosmic body to the next to discover facts or view a gallery of photos. Along with a range of videos, details of space missions and even a 3D view function, Solar Walk will amaze just about everyone!

• Galaxy view: users can zoom out to view the entire galaxy.
• Time machine: a neat feature where users can move to any date in time to see where the planets would be.
• Movie collection: Solar Walk includes several educational videos such as why the solar eclipse happens.
• Satellites: view real-time positions of Earth’s satellites.
• Locations: an arrow will display all of the current positions of planets, comets, asteroids, moons, etc.
