Description

View Mars images in a 3D world along Curiosity's path on Mars: Zoom, move to other locations, pan and bring an image to the foreground using touch controls; try stereo viewing in Google Cardboard via the launcher in the overflow menu.

All images shown in this app were taken by NASA's Curiosity rover, also known as the Mars Science Laboratory, which landed on Mars ‎on August 6, 2012.

This app was originally inspired by Michael Howard's excellent Midnight Planets app, as well as my lifelong passion for robotic space exploration and Mars. This version is in development, I hope you enjoy it. Send me an email for feature suggestions or bug reports - I'd love to hear from you.

The images in this app are downloaded from the Internet; if your 3G data plan is limited, I suggest you only use the app when on WiFi connections to avoid costly data charges.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
