Solar Walk 2 - View Planets 3D

Just one suggestion that I think should be put into consideration. In the past few years, there have quite a few space missions along with recently launched satellites that should be added to Solar Walk 2 such as the Artemis 1 Mission (along with the emphasis of future Artemis missions), SpaceX Starlink satellites, James Webb telescope just to name a few. In addition, I think it should be wroth noting how popular the interactive animated missions in Solar Walk 1 were. Like how you could watch the Hubble Space Telescope being launched into orbit, or the battery-powered four-wheeled rover known as the Lunar Roving Vehicle that was used on the Moon in the last three missions of the American Apollo program during 1971 and 1972. I remember when Solar Walk 1 allowed you to interact with and observe the Apollo 11 Mission (in case you forgot what mission that was it was when we put the first man on the Moon, Neil Armstrong).

Honestly, nothing is better than flying through space looking at the planets and stars to me. But there are a few things that I think would make this game the best. First, I was thinking adding exoplanets to stars we have discovered with them, or just auto generate them. Also, free fly mode. Be able to fly around freely and do whatever you want. And that idea takes me to two others. The first is landing on planets. Getting to explore the surface of planets and/or moons with a rendered atmosphere if added. The second one is exploring outside our galaxy. Getting to travel to areas millions of light years away, but at a limit of our local group only. It would be to hard to load anything outside the local group. The app would just crash right when you start. Anyway, the final idea (and everyone, and I mean “everyone,” is gonna like this idea) is................................................... .........Black Holes. With added light bending and supermassive black holes and all. Anyway, yeah. Those are “my” thoughts on future updates for this app.

I don't typically write reviews, but this app is more than worthy. There's so much to say about it and what makes it amazing, so let's begin, shall we? First off, the visuals are absolutely spectacular. Incredibly well rendered graphics are the biggest part of this. The planets look phenomenal, and the numerous probes that are featured look stunning. On a personal note, I really like the anti-aliasing that they used on the app. Next is the music. Not many songs are good for space exploration, but the music in this app is perfect. The hauntingly ethereal music really adds an extra layer of depth to the already beautiful app. Space exploration is definitely made better with it. Going further, the sheer accuracy and precision in the app is phenomenal. Each planet and it's corresponding satellites orbits are flawlessly calculated years in advance, and going back in time using the Time Travel feature, one can even see the history of numerous NASA and Roscosmos probes. If one were to go back to September 15th, 2017, one can also see the last day of Cassini's mission as well! Lastly is the sheer amount of information presented about each celestial body. Distances from the Sun and Earth, density, volume, surface temperature, gravity, mass, etc. is all present in almost every labeled object in the app. Looking through the catalogue of objects in the Solar System, there's an endless wealth of information to ensure that anyone, regardless of knowledge, learns things they didn't know about our home in the universe. All in all, this is a spectacular app, and if you're a fan of astronomy and exploration, then it's definitely for you.
