Explore the Milky Way with Galaxy Map
Galaxy Map is a free educational app available for Android devices. Developed by 3dgalaxymap.com, it offers an interactive 3D map of the Milky Way galaxy based on NASA's artistic impression of its structure. The app features photos taken by NASA spacecraft and ground-based telescopes like the Hubble, Chandra X-Ray, Herschel, and Spitzer.
Users can explore the galaxy from the outskirts, in the Norma-Outer spiral arm, to the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* at the galactic center. Notable structures such as the Pillars of Creation, Helix Nebula, the Engraved Hourglass Nebula, the Pleiades, and the Orion Arm, where our solar system and Earth are located, are included.
Galaxy Map also features neighboring dwarf galaxies such as Sagittarius and the Canis Major Overdensity, stellar streams, as well as internal galactic components such as a variety of nebulae, star clusters, or supernovae. This app is an excellent educational resource for teachers and students to learn and explore the universe we live in. Internet access is required to retrieve information from the wiki.
