Stars and Planets - Astronomy

I'm not gonna lie in 5 decades, this game is great. I would instantly agree with anyone that says this game is basically mobile space engine, but I am 13 years old, so some things here can be problematic, like the one I'm gonna tell you right now: WHY IS THE FEMALE ANDROIDS BREASTS SHOWN? this game is literally ages 4+, yet you somehow forgot to at least hide the literal body part that's instantly censored whenever it is shown? Many countries condier it NSFW for some very good reasons. It can pass, tho I just cannot ignore it for everyone's sake... I would highly recommend whoever can change the models of the characters to remove this aspect. Androids are not humans, so they can't breastfeed.

I’ve greatly enjoyed using this app to traipse across the local area of the galaxy and see where stars are near each other in 3D space. The ads in the free version are unobtrusive and I’m considering upgrading to the full version just because I like enjoy it so much, even though the free version fulfills my needs without issue. The 10-parsec sectors would be perfect for making a map in a sci-fi roleplaying game. One feature I would like to see, however, is a setting to change from xyz equatorial coordinates to uvw galactic coordinates so I could know whether I was getting closer to the galactic core or farther away, above or below the galactic plane, or in the direction of spin without having to do calculations in my head. Maybe an option to rotate the +Z into the vertical position instead of the +Y too, since I instinctively associate the North star with “up” when working in equatorial coordinates.

One caveat: the app only lets you view a 10-parsec cube at a time; no giant overview to give a clear idea of how far from the sun the area you're looking at is. However, this is only the second 3D map I've found of our corner of the galaxy that's not stuck centered on the sun! If you'd like a closer view of the area around a particular star, from any angle (what do the Pleiades look like from the back?), this is excellent. Selecting any star gives some basic information: other names, type, magnitude, temperature, a diagram comparing its size to the sun, and a map showing its position in the night sky. There's also a Wikipedia link, though some star pages don't exist yet. Ads generally stay out of the way at the top of the screen, though sometimes they get in way of the back button on star pages (just rotate your phone). Search function hasn't failed to find the stars I'm interested in, but I don't know enough to look for anything really obscure, so I don't know how thorough it is. Very pleased with the app overall!
