Marvel at the Constellations, Double stars, Star clouds, Planetary Nebula, Open clusters visible from your balcony or porch.

Very practical, simple and straightforward beginner's stargazing application. As someone interested in the night sky and astronomy, it is not always possible to be under a brilliant star studded sky as shown in many apps. But in reality, you get many opportunities to observe the night sky from your home balcony or porch. Let's help you make full use of these times. This stargazing application understands that you might not have the most dark and unpolluted sky. Also that you might not have access to the whole sky when you are observing from a balcony. It is very practical and guides you to only the celestial wonders which you can see.

Just select your location and time. Then select your arena — outdoors, porch or balcony followed by your sky type — city, rural or dark. We will tell you what's up there. Enjoy those beautiful celestial objects. Select a celestial object from the live list and we will tell you which direction to see and how high the object is. Also provided are pre-rendered maps with two zoom levels. Use this map for star hopping to the celestial object of interest.

Features:
