About this app

Solar System Scope is a fun way of Exploring, Discovering and Playing with the Solar System and Outer Space.

Welcome to the Space Playground

Solar System Scope (or just Solar) contains many views and celestial simulations, but most of all - it brings you closer to the furthest reaches of our world and lets you experience lots of fantastic space sceneries.

It aspires to be the most illustrative, easy to understand and simple to use space model.

3D Encyclopedia

In Solar’s unique encyclopedia you will find the most interesting facts about every planet, dwarf planet, every major moon and more – and everything is accompanied by realistic 3D visualizations.

Solar’s encyclopedia is available in 19 languages: English, Arabic, Bulgarian, Chinese, Czech, French, German, Greek, Indonesian, Italian, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Turkish and Vietnamese. More languages are coming soon!

Nightsky Observatory

Enjoy Stars and constellation of the night sky as viewed from any given location on Earth. You can point your device at the sky to see all objects in their proper place, but you can also simulate Night sky in the past or in the future.

Now with advanced options that let you simulate ecliptic, equatorial and azimuthal line, or grid (among other things).

Scientific Instrument

Solar System Scope calculations are based on up-to-date orbital parameters published by NASA and let you simulate celestial positions at any given time.

For Everyone

Solar System Scope is well suited for all audiences and ages: It is enjoyed by space enthusiasts, teachers, scientists, but Solar is successfully used even by children of 4+ years of age!

Unique Maps

We are proud to present a very unique set of planetary and moon maps, that let you experience a true-color space as never before.

These accurate maps are based on NASA elevation and imagery data. Colors and shades of the textures are tuned according to true-color photos made by Messenger, Viking, Cassini and New Horizon spacecrafts, and the Hubble Space Telescope.

Basic resolution of these maps is for free – but if you would like the best experience, you can check out the highest quality, which is available with In-App purchase.

In principle a very beautiful app, but it's too much for smartphones. Smartphones sort of collapse after using this app, means either it freezes or your home screen has to reconfigure. I guess the amount of calculations for this app is simply too much for smartphones, even for high-end devices. So, on a smartphone use it carefully, and maybe better not at all. Regrettably.

Based on its features, usability, and overall experience, I'd rate this solar system app as a solid 9 out of 10. It offers comprehensive information, captivating visuals, and engaging interactive elements, making it a must-have for space enthusiasts of all ages. However, slight improvements in performance and additional customization options could elevate its rating even further. Just amazing. Best app

Very nice app! Sadly System UI crashes regulary, and also the paths are of low resolution (e. g. the slingshots for voyager are difficult to exactly find). BUT WE CAN SOMEWHAT SEE THE SLINGSHOTS!!! Very nice! Couldn't find James Webb, as it has a very interesting orbit this would be a very nice addition. Also the option to choose how long a path of an object should be drawn. Must have for anyone, not just space fans.
