Description

Pocket Planets is the most comprehensive 3DSolar System Simulator in the Google Play Store.
With accurate scale representation of the Sun, Planets, Moons,Asteroids, Dwarfs and detailed information to the celestialobjects.
Use it as educational software for your kids, or regardless if youare a beginner or advanced astronomer, this App brings you closerto the planets than any telescope.
Working great on smartphones and tablets.

Discover...
★ the Sun, the bright shining star in the center of ourSolar System
Mercury, the fastest planet orbiting around our Sun
Venus, its greenhouse effect produces a surfacetemperature that would melt lead
Earth, the blue oasis and only place filled withlife
Mars, inspiration for many SciFi films and books
Jupiter, the giant, guardian and protector in ourneighborhood
Saturn, with rings of unique beauty and elegance
Uranus, which rolls over its orbit like a bowlingball
Neptune, the outermost recognized planet
Pluto, one of a new category of dwarf planets

But these are not all objects of this simulator, because so far youdo not know Orcus, Varuna, Ceres,Pallas, Haumea and all the other asteroids and dwarfplanets. Not to mention Sedna whose orbit is stillspeculative to science.

Nearly 200 objects are included, but not as static images,rather as living objects in a living universe. Enjoy the SolarSystem in realtime, in the future or past.

Bring the cosmos to life with an innovative timeslider. Lettime take its course, how fast depends on the scale factor of thetimeslider. A wipe with your finger and the simulator comes tolife.

For a more exiting viewing experience various camera modesare available. Attach the camera to a planet or place it at a fixedlocation in space and let the celestial bodies pass by, in portraitor landscape mode, whatever you prefer.

And that's still not all. A built in encyclopedia gives youuseful information about each object of the simulation, extractedfrom Wikipedia.

Don't miss this unique viewing experience, there is no easier wayto explore the wonderful world beyond our planet.
And if you ever feel "Lost in Space", don't worry, because it'sjust a simulation.
