About Discover Astronomy

Welcome to the world of astronomy: planets, double stars, galaxies, nebulae. These are just some of the amazing wonders that await you when you explore the night sky. But a dark sky with seemingly countless stars can appear overwhelming. Where do you begin?

Start with Discover Astronomy. For decades, the insightful editors of Astronomy magazine have been guiding observers, across the constellations, through the solar system, and into the deep sky so they can get the most from our time under the stars. And now, with this app, Northern Hemisphere observers can take expert guidance with them wherever they go.

Discover Astronomy eases you into stargazing by having you get to know the night sky with just your unaided eyes and binoculars through interactive articles, videos, galleries, and star charts. What are the signpost stars and star patterns of each season? What should you observe first? How can you understand where to look when you hear about a sky event in the news? The answers are all here.

After you feel comfortable with the major constellation guideposts of each season, grab your binoculars and Discover Astronomy to explore the Moon and the brightest star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies. You’ll be amazed by what simple optics can reveal. Soon you’ll be craving the views only a telescope can provide, which this app helps you with as well. Let Astronomy’s editors guide you through the buying process and get you started observing the planets, the Sun, and hundreds of stunning deep-sky objects. In no time, you’ll be exploring the sky like a pro and sharing your knowledge with others.

Payment for this app will be charged to your Google Play account at confirmation of purchase.

I don't understand the previous complaints. Almost seems like they were expecting a free game or such. Typical clickers. This app is for educational purposes and definitely serves the purpose!

Like Astronomy's other app, this a beautifully executed product. Very useful in particular to those new to amateur astronomy, or seasoned folks looking for a tool to help others get involved. Either way, I feel this is worth the money and time. Hopefully new content can/will be added. Cheers!
