Project Planet - an interactive map of our solar system How much would you weigh on Jupiter? Why does a day on Mercury last longer than its year? Project Planet turns space facts into a fingertip-sized journey. Scroll through all nine planets (Pluto included), feel each world's pull on your own body, and explore the numbers astronomers have spent decades collecting. Highlights - Sticky scroll across the system: from Mercury to Pluto, each planet stays centred long enough for you to take it in. - You, on every world: enter your weight and age once and watch them recalculated by each planet's gravity and orbital period. - Five rich widgets per planet: surface temperature with reference markers (Antarctica, freezing, boiling), atmospheric pressure with composition chart, travel times from Earth from walking up to the speed of light, gravitational force with everyday objects (phone, backpack, car), and an interactive pressure simulator with phase changes for water, oxygen, CO2, hydrogen, nitrogen and mercury (Antoine equation under the hood). - Six languages: Czech, English, German, Slovak, Spanish and French, auto-detected from your device. - Metric or imperial: switch instantly; weights, temperatures and distances follow your preference. - Crafted to feel like a small cosmic museum: dark cosmic theme, hand-tuned typography, subtle scroll choreography, and a right rail that lets you jump to any planet. - Built on real data: gravitational accelerations, orbital periods, NASA mean temperatures, atmospheric compositions and substance phase transitions. Requires an internet connection. The app runs as a continuously updated webview and uses native iOS capabilities such as haptic feedback to add a tactile dimension to your interstellar journey.

The universe, right in your pocket. "3D Solar System Tour" is an easy-to-use planetarium app that recreates the Solar System with beautiful 3D graphics, soothing BGM, and detailed voice narration. No complex controls required. Just relax and listen to the stories of the stars. 【Main Feature: Audio Guide Tour】 Narrated Solar System Tour The highlight of this app is the "Tour Mode," which automatically takes you on a journey through all the planets. Just like a museum guide, a calm voice explains the mysteries and characteristics of each planet. Perfect for relaxing before bed or learning something new during your commute. (Available via Rewarded Ads or Premium Plan) 【Other Features】 Beautiful 3D Simulation Explore the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Rotate planets with a swipe or zoom in to see their textures. Experience the Vastness: "Real Scale Mode" Switch to scientifically accurate size ratios and distances with a single tap. Note: In this mode, the Sun is massive, while other planets appear merely as tiny dots. While not visually detailed, this mode offers a powerful educational perspective on how vast and empty space truly is. Simple Warp Travel In "Exploration Mode," you can experience the atmosphere of traveling to planets aboard a spaceship. Note: This is a simple visual transition to jump to your destination, not a complex flight simulator. Interesting Astronomical Data Core Data: Diameter, Mass, Orbital/Rotational periods. Travel Time: See how long it would take to reach each planet using the "Apollo" spacecraft or the modern "Parker Solar Probe." 【Premium Features】 The app is free to download. Upgrading to the Premium Plan unlocks: ・Ad-Free Experience: Remove all ads. ・Unlimited Audio Tours: Access the full guided tour without watching reward ads.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Project Planet Space at none against 3D Solar System Tour's 1. Project Planet Space also leads on ads (none vs shown). 3D Solar System Tour's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 25 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
