Audio Sky Tours

Experiencing and understanding astronomy

With this audio guide you are able to explore the night sky all by yourself. A speaker shows you the most interesting celestial objects while explaining what you really ought to know about the universe. In the daytime or in conditions with poor visibility you can always follow the informative excursions on the display.

The first guided tour is available with the free version. The rather more elaborate full version contains five entertaining guided tours through the night sky, with one male and one female speaker, plus a supplementary episode at the end. We recommend that you start with the introduction. This can be launched in both versions by pressing the top most button in the observation table.

If you want to consolidate the information you hear, you may use the free work sheets supplied on the author's website. They are especially helpful if the app is used in classes.
