• Use night mode (red) to help your eyes keep adapting to darkness.
• Near-limitless zoom on high-resolution images of deep-sky objects and planetary surfaces.
• Observe outdoors even without an internet connection using a reduced dataset: 2 million stars, 2 million Deep Sky Objects, and 10k asteroids.



• Telescope control via Bluetooth or Wi‑Fi: connect to any GOTO telescope that supports NexStar, SynScan, or LX200 protocols.
• Plan sessions with advanced observation tools, including predictions for object visibility and transit times.

Massive Content Library

Stellarium Plus includes over 1.6 billion stars discovered in the universe and all known planets. It also provides a list of more than 10,000 asteroids in the solar system. Along with many other sky objects, the app can help you detect and identify targets in your current area—or virtually anywhere you choose.

You can explore object details such as name, symbol, star position, constellation alignment, and compass orientation. Learn what you’re seeing in multiple ways—through text, images, and visual connections between stars. You can also view 3D planet renderings, follow the motion of man-made satellites, and see how the sky changes between day and night. With self-analyzing features and on-screen results, Stellarium Plus aims to feel even more like a real telescope experience.

Highlights

• Instant Object Detection:

  The app turns your device into a temporary telescope. You can switch locations easily and capture the sky you want to observe. Objects that appear in the frame are identified—even if the distance from your device is very large.

  



• Easy Phone Aiming:

  Point your phone at the sky to learn about the stars or constellations in view. The app helps you find the exact positions of constellations, so you can observe from any place and at any time.



• Global Constellation Views:

  Observe the sky from different locations. Changing your viewpoint helps you discover new constellations. Stars, constellations, nebulae, and even galaxies can appear in your view.

• Large Star Catalog:

  Access a catalog that includes full star and planet names, images, and information. Visuals of stars and constellations make learning easier, while the expanded catalog provides more details about objects overhead.

• Smart Telescope Control:

  Your phone can act as a telescope companion. With strong observation and identification tools, factors like distance become less of a barrier. Zoom in for detailed viewing without stressing over image quality.

• Offline Sky Access:

  Observe the sky from far away and identify what’s in view. Core features stay available even when you’re offline, letting you enjoy twinkling stars at night.
