Astronomy for everyone. I love this project and wish it all the best.
It can show you the stars in real-time at the point in the sky you are pointing your phone to, and it has a red-black theme which doesn't blind you so you can still see the stars after looking at your phone screen
Really good planetarium and system for Linux as well. Very powerful, supports plugins and is definitely an active project!
