Multimedia stories synchronized with the stars!

STARMAP 2 IS NOW AVAILABLE. This version of Starmap will no more be supported in the future.

Imagine getting a personal sky tour from an experienced storyteller! This is what Starmap Media does. Its a unique app that combines a professional star atlas with beautiful astronomy images and the power of an audiobook to present multimedia stories you can experience anytime you wish.

Starmap Media transports you across space and time, to visit star clusters, starbirth regions, dying stars, distant galaxies, and much more. Each story teaches star legends and history, and gives you the latest scientific understanding of celestial objects near and far. Its almost like having a planetarium show in the palm of your hand, ready to play at any time.

Outdoors under the stars, Starmap Media will automatically supply the correct stories for your time and location. All you do is point your device to the sky and click on objects as the story progresses. Narrator Jon Mohr guides you through the stars in a gentle, thoughtful manner. Each story is illustrated with space images and animations and the narration is comfortably paced so that you have the time to locate the object being described.

Indoors, in "couch mode", you can browse the universe at will, enjoying each story whenever you wish, regardless of whats up in the sky.

Starmap Media is a collaboration between astronomers, artists, and storytellers, designed to bring the beauty of the cosmos to you.

Explore the cosmos With Starmap Media on your iPhone or iPad.
