Store description excerpt
What should I look at tonight? Star Archive picks objects your aperture can actually show under your site's sky — 1,272 objects judged in advance, so you don't drive out and find nothing there. This is an app for visual astronomy — for people who look through a telescope or binoculars with their own eyes. Plan a session, read an observing guide for each object, and keep a logbook: it all flows in one line. TONIGHT'S TARGETS, CHOSEN FOR YOU · Matched to your aperture (binoculars to large Dobsonians) and your site's sky darkness. · Choose the depth — a showpiece night, an easy stroll, or a deep dive. · Narrow by object type: galaxies only, no double stars, and so on. · Turn a recommendation straight into tonight's plan, or use it to fill an observing list. ONE UNBROKEN NIGHT · Plan — gather tonight's objects, sorted by hour or by constellation, with rise, transit and set times, altitude and direction, and the Moon's phase. · At the eyepiece — move object to object, tick what you saw, leave ratings and notes. Notes can be dictated by voice. · Wrap-up — enter the night's conditions once (seeing, transparency, limiting magnitude, site) and they are written into every log of that night. · Logbook — revisit by night, or by object. OBJECTS AND VISUAL GUIDES · 16,000+ objects — Messier, Caldwell, Herschel 400, NGC/IC, double and variable stars, asterisms, compact galaxy groups, and the solar system. · 2,400+ visual observing guides — how to star-hop to it, what shows at binocular, small, medium and large apertures, and advice on magnification and filters. · 4,600+ observing checkpoints — questions such as "can you see the bright core?" Rate them and compare with your past self next time. OBSERVING LISTS · Messier 110, Caldwell, Herschel 400, 1,001 Celestial Wonders, seasonal double stars, Hickson compact groups, and more. · Build your own lists, group them into folders, and watch your progress on each. · Make a star-walk route from several objects; add it to a plan and the members follow in order at the eyepiece. NIGHT MODE THAT PROTECTS YOUR DARK ADAPTATION · The whole screen turns red, with its own brightness control. Photos and sketches get a red veil too. · Shake the phone to toggle it. After sunset the app switches to a dark screen on its own. STAR CHARTS · A built-in chart with more than 130,000 stars shows your planned objects among the constellations. · Works with SkySafari and Stellarium — aim at an object with one button, or send tonight's list to be highlighted on the chart. SKETCHES AND KEEPING RECORDS · Attach your own sketches to an object and gather them into albums. · Move logs, lists and sketches in and out as spreadsheets, and carry everything to a new phone with a full backup. ALSO · Tonight's cloud cover by the hour, with temperature, humidity and wind. · Planets, dwarf planets and asteroids in real time — position, rise and set, phase, next opposition or conjunction, and Jupiter's moon events. · Korean, English and Japanese.
