- Interactive touch gestures including panning with one finger, zooming and rotating with two fingers
- Display of planet orbits represented using 52 dots each (e.g., Earth featuring one dot per week)
- Heliocentric axis visualization in the x and z planes
- Accurate planet positioning calculations according to VSOP2013 and VSOP87 models
- Moon position calculations based on ELP2000 data
- Inclusion of a star-studded background image featuring 42,455 stars from the Hipparcos Input Catalogue
- Identification of star and constellation lines and names on a celestial sphere image
- Illustrations of 31 different constellations for astronomical reference
- Actual 3D representations of the 150 brightest stars as spheres within the simulation
- Inclusion of a lighthouse on Earth positioned at the user's GPS coordinates
- Integration with phone sensors (Azimuth, Elevation, Roll) to accurately position a virtual phone within the scene
- Augmented reality mode access upon clicking the virtual phone button
- An Almanac module enabling exploration of ephemeris calculators related to stars, planets, Sun, Moon, and Earth
The application provides user-friendly controls for adjusting camera distance and angle of view, planet scales, local time settings, time animation speed, and visibility of various interface elements.
