Distant Suns astronomy app is an award-winning hand-held planetarium with over 25 years of development, offering you a new way to look at the sky. Sporting over 130,000 stars, all 8 (or is it 9?) planets, the sun and moon, constellations, galaxies, nebula and star clusters, Distant Suns offers a gracefully visual respite from a busy day.

While others play games, you can travel to the stars.

With Distant Suns you can:

*Set your location from any place on earth
*Change the date and time to show the sky of the past or future, like a little time-machine in your hands
*Learn the stories behind each constellation
*See the realistic ghostly band of the Milky Way
*Follow the moon through its phases, and the planets through their monthly dance
*Toggle between a label-rich sky and a serene view of the stars alone
*Contains over 200 galaxies, nebula and star clusters, many within reach of binoculars
*Touch the sky to view extensive data on each object

Perfect for the whole family. The only requirement is sense of wonder!
