2) Solar System: Sun and all planets(8), major satellites. Observer can be located on any solar system body.
3) GPS/network location, accelerometer/magnetometer/gyroscope support, gestures: drag/pinch/rotate
4) change time and star brightness
5) Free: no money, no in-app-billing, no ads, no spyware, no unneeded permissions. No hidden cost for upcoming extensions. Free source code. This is amateur software, I get no financial benefit from doing this.

Please read Options/Help in the menu for detailed description and feature explanation.

What is NOT yet implemented:
- expansion file loading from within the app: the expansion files must be downloaded while downloading the app. This way no fishy permissions are required.
- Object selection and centering
- Object information
- Object searching
- Nebula
- Comets, asteroids, artificial satellites
