“Simply amazing.” - Macworld

“Solar Walk serves up a visually impressive 3D model of our solar system. Set against a haunting, atmospheric soundscape, the app shows planets and satellites in their correct positions, and offers mini movies, facts and other related tidbits.” - TNW

“This jaw-dropping app provides a wholly interactive 3D model of our solar system, one that’s had me hooked for days. It’s the kind of thing you can imagine a science teacher using in the classroom of the future — except that we don’t have to wait.” - CNet

“Zoom from Mercury to Pluto (which makes the cut in this app), passing each planet’s moons along the way. Because Solar Walk knows what time it is, the planets are in proper orientation to the Sun: Earth is dark where it is currently night and gradually lightens to daytime on the other side.” - NY Times

"It's great for showing my students the relative positions of the planets in the solar system, the satellites orbiting the Earth and our place in the galaxy. Awesome with a smartboard as well." - by jbrown61

Solar Walk enables you to:

► Observe the 3D model of our Solar system with all its objects in real time and in a proper orientation. Turn into an astronomer and explore planets, moons, satellites, asteroids, dwarf planets, comets, stars and other celestial bodies. Enjoy gorgeous graphics and visuals while navigating through the solar system.

► Make virtual flights from one space object to another.

► Travel in time and see what the universe and our Solar system looked like at a certain period.

► Find an exciting view of the Milky Way Galaxy.

► Watch a collection of educational solar system movies to learn about space-related topics including Earth's moon phases, Earth's cycles, tidal phenomena, and zodiacal constellations.

► Enjoy 3D planetarium with the help of special glasses and activating the anaglyph mode.

► Share interesting screenshots of the app with your friends.

► Choose the view mode comfortable for you (orrery/true-to-scale).

The app contains In-App Purchases.

Solar Walk is a great educational tool appropriate for both adults and children.

Disappointing

Should make it clear that in app purchases aren’t available for family sharing. Very disappointing.

Beautiful but

It’s really really unintuitive. Should be some instructions for how to use it instead of trial and error.

Pokémon go

Solar system

Simply Fantastic Apps .. Lots learning

Excellent app

This is an extremely good educative app which has taught me many things in and out of our solar system, it has every bit of info you need with orbiting subjects and satellites of moons and planets with a complete explorers control with a very good sound track, well worth its money!

Fully sweet

I love this app, its the only one thats pleased me enough to actually write a review about it.

Very good visual imagery, and amazing fun to learn from. However, it's a bit hard to figure out how to navigate and I would like to see more than just our solar system

Best free app ever

Must have!!!!
