Orion’s StarSeek 4 is a powerful and easy-to-use astronomy app equally suited to beginning sky watchers on up to hard-core amateur astronomy enthusiasts and telescope users. A significant upgrade from StarSeek 3, StarSeek 4 adds a hugely expanded database and some terrific new features and functionality, while offering even more advanced wireless control of GoTo telescopes. StarSeeks streamlined interface puts the universe at your fingertips.

StarSeek 4 includes 2.5 million stars, 31,000 deep sky objects, the Solar Systems major planets and moons, and over 4,000 updatable asteroids, comets, and satellites. Simulate the sky from any place in the Solar System, up to 10,000 years in the past or future. Expand your astronomical knowledge with over 1500 encyclopedic descriptions of the constellations, stars, and planets. Enjoy more than 800 images from NASA space missions, the Hubble Space Telescope, and the worlds foremost astro-photographers. Follow eclipses, occultations, and transits! View the planets and their moons as only NASA space probes have.

StarSeek 4 lets anyone identify what’s in the night sky simply by holding your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch up to the sky! The dynamically changing map will show you “what’s up” – literally – as you pan around the sky. You’ll identify stars, constellations, planets, and more. Then just tap on an object displayed on your phone’s screen to get a treasure trove of information about it. Pretty cool! The map is highly customizable, so you can enjoy just the amount and kind of detail you want to see. Search for any object in the database, and follow the arrow on screen to locate it in the sky. Preserve your eyesight with red-screen “night vision” mode as youre exploring the skies. Stay updated with SkyWeek - the mobile version of Sky & Telescope Magazines weekly column, with interactive sky charts. SkyWeek is accessible from right within the app.

StarSeek 4 also allows wireless control of Orion’s many computerized GoTo telescopes – from the portable StarSeeker 4 line to the large-aperture SkyQuest series of GoTo Dobsonians – as well as Celestron, Meade, SkyWatcher, and many other computerized telescopes. It can point your GoTo or "Push-To" telescope anywhere in the sky, using your iPhone/iPad/iPods built-in Wi-Fi along with our StarSeek Wi-Fi Telescope Control Module (sold separately). Plan observing sessions with Observing Lists, log your observations into them, and share them with friends.
