## What is Skylore?

Hold your phone up to the night sky: Skylore shows the sky above you, live, and names every star, planet and constellation.

POINT AND KNOW
• The map turns wherever you point your phone, over the live camera picture if you like.
• Tap a star for its name, distance, colour, brightness and story.
• Search for Saturn, Vega or the Andromeda Galaxy and see where it is, even below the horizon.

A REAL SKY
• 2 million real stars; the faint ones appear as you zoom in.
• 600 nebulae, star clusters and galaxies, each with its own drawing.
• A hand-made Milky Way with its star clouds and dust lanes.
• Saturn's rings, Jupiter's moons, the face of Mars and the craters of the Moon, as they are tonight.

CONSTELLATIONS AND THEIR MYTHS
• 88 constellations with their mythological figures drawn in gold.
• Orion, Scorpius, Cygnus, Andromeda… and the stories behind them.

WHAT'S UP TONIGHT?
• Sunset, the hours of full darkness and the phase of the Moon.
• The night's finest sights, eclipses, meteor showers and the chance of an aurora.
• Visible passes of the International Space Station; add a reminder to your calendar.

EXPLORE
• Star trails: watch the sky turn around the Pole Star like a long exposure, and share it.
• Time machine: travel thousands of years back or ahead and watch the pole star change.
• The invisible sky: see the Milky Way in infrared, radio, X-rays and gamma rays.
• A sky card of the night you were born, a guided sky tour, a constellation game and badges.
• Fly the space shuttle to the planets.

MADE FOR THE NIGHT
• Night mode turns the sky red so your eyes stay used to the dark.
• Works offline: stars, planets and sky events are calculated on your phone.
• No account, no ads, no personal data collected.
• 10 languages.

Look up tonight. The sky is waiting.
