SKYGAZE transforms your home into a magical planetarium, letting you explore the night sky in breath-taking detail. The app features accurate star positions calculated in real time, as well as the visible planets in our solar system.

This project was awarded 3rd Place at the Meta XR Hackathon 2021. The prize money was used to develop this demo.

perfect app for star gazing

when i first got my oculus, all i wanted was an app that’ll give me an experience of seeing stars the way i used to see them, living on a boat, in the middle of the Pacific. i waited almost a year before something promising. months ago, i saw previews of this app on reddit and knew there wasnt going to be anything that could compare. today it was released and it is everything i wanted and more. this is an amazingly beautiful piece of art that will be worth every penny that it sells for. thank you for sharing this with us.

It's what I've been waiting for...

But it could use some tweaking. I would allow for a person to look under themselves as well, not just the upper half of the room. I want to see Leo, but it's currently not in my viewing area and that blows. I loved the Planetarium and I can't wait to see the full version!! This is a win for me. Let's get the full version going!!

Need the finished product

This demo app is unreal for the little that is shown in the demo. Can you post an update where you are at in the development of the finished product? There seems to be little information and this app seems to have some extreme potential, I loved how the ceiling opens up and then you can lower the walls. Maybe partner with Griffith Observatory or some other planetarium and get a finished product out there. Give an update please to let us all know if the demo is all we are going to get because The project Is dead or if you are still working on it. Cheers
