Description

Our local star, like you've never seen it before!

The Smithsonian Solar Eclipse app is your interactive guide to the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse, giving Americans a front row seat to a rare celestial event. It is a free app, made possible by funding from the Smithsonian Women's Committee (SWC), with content from the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) and powered by SkySafari 5, the next-generation award-winning astronomy app for Android.

Watch a live NASA stream of the eclipse as it travels across the continental United States, calculate your view with our interactive eclipse map and get a virtual view in our eclipse simulator. While you wait, check out some of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory's solar research and get even closer to the sun with near-live views from space.

The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) is one part of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, where leading astronomers ask, test, and answer some of humanity’s greatest questions.

Since 1890, SAO has conducted solar research, including the study of solar radiation and the solar constant.

Today our telescopes and instruments send back high resolution images of the Sun and other data to study phenomena including how the solar atmosphere is energized, the topology of solar features, and space weather, to name just a few. During the 2017 solar eclipse, SAO’s AIR-Spec instrument will ride along a unique aircraft built for scientific research in order to measure plasma emission from the sun.

Our solar research is more than a century in the making, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

The Smithsonian Eclipse app was made possible by a grant through the Smithsonian Women's Committee . SWC supports the Smithsonian through volunteer fundraising, grant awards, and public relations.

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.

4 ★Thanks for the app. It wasn't as full featured as some, but it gave me the info I needed. Well worth it.

4 ★Great free app. GPS location is a bit off, compared to Google maps that is dead on, but is still good enough for the eclipse.

5 ★Thank you, the time for my location is exactly as described in the news, i'm in Palm Beach county Florida, thanks again for taking the time doing this free app for us.

3 ★Corrected. Thanks. -- I'm looking at locations in TN, and your app has totality in 3.30 time frame, and everywhere else has same location at 2.30 edt. -- Time calcs appear to be off by an hour. Or did eastern time suddenly become -3 UTC instead of -4?

5 ★Very nice, intuitive app. I can't think of anything an eclipse watcher would need that this doesn't have.

3 ★Great except that the countdown says Oregon and I'm in Kentucky. Tried putting a pin down but there's no way to save your location. Would be nice if countdown could be customized to the location you want, and had settings options. That's why it's 3 stars instead of 5.

5 ★Dev/support teams are active and respond to requests and problems, in addition to making a wonderful app. Thank you and kudos to the dev and support teams!

1 ★I entered a new location on the interactive map but the observation details in the lower section did not update. I'll open a trouble ticket as given in another entry. 25 days and counting...

1 ★The times it gave were wrong. Luckily it said too early and not too late, but it was off by a full hour. It looks like they didn't get their time zones right.

1 ★It was laggy, and the Interactive Eclipse Map didn't display the different times.

1 ★Interactive Eclipse Map still fails to load and event data still does not update. Display is full screen and still covers up the notification bar. Samsung Note 4 w/v6.0.1

5 ★Very useful and educational . I am having my middle school son download it as well. Thank you for making this app! We are looking forward to the eclipse.
