Alexandria, Virginia – Vito Technology is proud to announce that Stargazer Pack is now available exclusively on the App Store: three groundbreaking stargazing tools in one bundle from the award-winning creators of Star Walk and series of educational apps critically acclaimed by teachers and educators across the world. The bundle includes Star Walk 2, the sequel to the stargazing guide with 10 million users to date, Sky Live, a minimalist reporter of current stargazing conditions, Solar Walk 3D model of the solar system, and Star Walk Kids, the latest company’s bestseller tailored for the younger audience.
“It is the most comprehensive and innovative set of tools for astronomy yet. Cutting-edge technology inside your iPhone allows our stargazing guide to follow your motions with incredible precision to detect slightest angle changes as we match the sky on your screen to what is in front of you at the moment,” says Olga Shtaub, Head of Marketing.
Vito Technology introduces two bundles: Stargazing Pack (Star Walk 2, Sky Live, Solar Walk) that serves as an introduction to astronomy as well as a helper to inveterate stargazers and Family Stargazing (Star Walk 2, Star Walk Kids, Sky Live) tailored for child-and-parent learning.
Star Walk 2 helps you find and identify stars, planets, and constellations you point your phone at. Following your motions with built-in accelerometer and digital compass, Star Walk 2 matches the sky map to your parameters.
Star Walk Kids features hand-picked information to inspire children to learn about space. Browsing across the sky with live motion tracking, the young users can tap on any object they find to learn its name, size relative to the Sun, distance, and what it is known for. Selected objects are explained in short animated films voiced by professional actors. Users will learn what Polaris is, how to find it on the night sky, and how to determine cardinal directions on the spot, and much more.
Solar Walk is an interactive orrery that shows all planets and satellites of the solar system in their correct positions in real time. The 3D solar system model lets you navigate between planets, see their positions on a specific date, explore how they move and why. You will see the entire Milky Way galaxy from a far and zoom in to study all the planets and satellites in close-up, learn their trajectories, inner structures, history of their exploration, and geography. Every planet has extensive information: size, mass, orbital velocity, exploratory missions, thickness of structural layers, and composition of atmosphere.
