About SolarWalk 2: Space Exploration
The all-new Solar Walk 2 - Space Exploration is a powerful educational tool at the edge of graphic technology, a great alternative to the old paper atlases. Explore planets in real time, find out a lot about the history of space exploration, take a look at exciting 3D models of spacecraft.
Solar Walk 2 - Space Exploration offers an interactive encyclopedia of the solar system seen as never before. Based on real physics and latest photographic data, Solar Walk 2 comes to life with stunning visual effects of planetary atmospheres, solar flares, solar eclipses, auroras, asteroid belts and astronomical calendar with various celestial events to give the space depth and feel that hadn’t yet been possible on a mobile device.
NEW IN SOLAR WALK 2
The Missions*
Observe detailed 3D models of spacecraft. You will see Sputnik fly over the Earth, martian rovers moving on the red planet and ExoMars upcoming orbital insertion. Every notable event of every mission is in the calendar for you to explore, including the latest discoveries from New Horizons of Pluto and Curiosity on Mars.
Astronomical Calendar*
The life of the solar system is presented as a series of celestial events: solar eclipses, conjunctions, the moon phases, man-made missions and other astronomical events. The user can experience the progress of space exploration and see how the planets moved at any time and how they are going to move in the near future.
The Physics
Observe planets in real time - they move just as they do in real life. You can view a solar eclipse from space as a shadow crossing the Earth and see exactly what regions it covers at what times for each and every eclipse of the covered range.
The Sounds
Solar Walk 2 can be enjoyed using with sounds, put on the headphones and dive into the outer space moving from one planet of the solar system to another, get acquainted with the most outstanding space missions exploring the other worlds.
The Textures
We collected the highest resolution textures available to human race to date and integrated them beautifully, specifically for retina displays. Photos acquired during the latest mission to Pluto are already in the app, making it the most fresh and up-to-date space simulator.
The Data*
More than two thousand of the brightest stars, 21 asteroids, 10 comets, 8 planets, 9 dwarf planets and other celestial bodies are in their correct relative positions for any given date and time. And the list is growing! We’re eager to add new dwarf planets, missions and more facts about space!
*Detailed information on planets and objects of the solar system, 3D models of spacecrafts and astronomical calendar of celestial events are available with In-App Purchases.
How is it different from Solar Walk 1?
Solar Walk 2 has all-new graphics, interface and updated planetary textures. Your exploration of the solar system in Solar Walk 2 is guided by a carefully hand picked astronomical calendar, a collection of simulations of celestial events with stunning visuals. You can still fly around the solar system and explore it on your own, like in Solar Walk 1, but now you have a comprehensive tour guide at your disposal.
==========================================

Shouldn't Ceres be listed with the other dwarf planets instead of the asteroids? Or maybe have it listed in both? It's driving my son crazy.

Even though the graffic is better than solar walk 1, I would like the sun more brightness , so it would made a big impact as solar 1 did. Also the information about planets, stars etc are a bit poor

However it worked beautifully until a week or so ago. And star walk 2 had a bug where it wouldn't load it would just get stuck on the loading screen which was fixed. Now the same happened with this app, at least for me, and it happened roughly the same time as star walk 2's bug, may 14. So im just wondering if it is the same issue. But regardless the issue it would be great if you guys could fix this because this along with star walk 2 are the best astronomy apps. :)

The app works at last, in all of its glory! Now it's the best Solar Walk yet. My only request is that you guys bring back the original music from the first one.

So you have to buy the app but then if you want to use the stuff in the app, like viewing satellites and missions you have to be a premium owner which is monthly subscriptions or a yearly on. Buy this app so you have to spend money to use this app

Would give it 5 stars but it looks so much better on the iPhone 6s+. I have a galaxy s7 edge which is the latest technology hardware for android and the app won't allow me to use or activate the visual settings..?

Are you going to implement short clips of the rovers and landers like in solar walk 1? Also the controls are very difficult.

The best app about our Solar System.

It's a great app but annoyed with the amount of purchases you have to make to unlock more features. Plus no clear information on what the premium unlimited access for $19.99 offers, is there a time limit on it or good for life? If so, why not offer this option as part of the initial purchase? Knowledge should be accessible, a reasonable price would be great!!! Great app just not impressed by the $$$$ tactic for more knowledge.
