About this app

Which star is this? Where do I find Mars? Is it the ISS up there? Hold your smartphone or tablet up to the sky and see which planets, stars, or constellations are above you.

Where is Jupiter and how can I find my zodiac in the sky? The Sky by Redshift shows you the position of celestial objects in the sky with just a few taps. Get close-up views not only of near-Earth planets and moons, but also experience deep-space objects in stunning detail.

What do the Saturnian moons or Andromeda look like? The Sky by Redshift takes you on a breath-taking journey into the infinite realms of outer space. Fly to planets, stars, and other celestial bodies and let the app tell you about our Universe.

What is a solar eclipse and what does an opposition of Mars mean? The Sky by Redshift answers your questions with stunning animations and insightful explanations. Thus, even beginners will be able to understand the mechanics and to visually imagine the most important celestial events.

No matter if you are a beginner or amateur astronomer, child or adult - with the intuitive app The Sky by Redshift, everyone will immediately understand the sky - without much prior knowledge and long training.

Shine with your knowledge of the sky, around the campfire or on night walks: with The Sky by Redshift, astronomy will always be a pleasure! Discover the joy of watching the skies and the age-old fascination with space that has inspired mankind for millennia – and become part of the worldwide Redshift community.
The app contains more than 9,000 stars, 88 constellations, hundreds of moons, asteroids and comets, as well as 200 spectacular deep-sky objects - all with accurate position calculation and motion tracking in real time.

Your thirst for knowledge is not yet satisfied? With the premium subscription, you can activate additional spaceflights as well as additional knowledge sections of "Discover astronomy" - and you can travel through space free of advertising. Moreover, a brand new Guided Tour of the U.S. MARS 2020 mission is available. It includes images and animations of the landing on Mars, as well as of the environment at the landing site of the Mars rover Perseverance.

For those who want to get deeper into astronomy and sky watching by traveling almost indefinitely through space and time, we recommend the great planetarium app Redshift Sky Pro.
