Description
***SkySafari has been upgraded! For more information on the NEW SkySafari 5 Plus for Android, visit SkySafariAstronomy.com or search for SkySafari 5 Plus on Google Play!***SkySafari 4 Plus is everything in SkySafari 4, plus more. It adds a hugely expanded database, wired or wireless telescope control, and spaceflight. Take stargazing to the next level!
This version includes 2.5 million stars, 31,000 deep sky objects, the Solar System's major planets and moons, 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 world's foremost astro-photographers.
Leave Earth's surface behind with SkySafari 4 Plus! Tap the Orbit button to fly into orbit around other objects in the Solar System and beyond. Follow eclipses, occultations, and transits in Earth's sky! View the planets and their moons as only NASA space probes have - even label every crater on them.
SkySafari 4 Plus adds wired or wireless control for Celestron, Meade, Orion, SkyWatcher, and many other computerized telescopes. It can point your GoTo or "Push-To" telescope anywhere in the sky, using your device's built-in Bluetooth, and a Bluetooth serial adapter (sold separately). Plan observing sessions with Observing Lists, log your observations into them, and share them with friends. More astronomers use SkySafari for telescope control than any other app!
Plus is a powerful planetarium that fits in your pocket. It puts millions of stars and all the planets at your fingertips and contains encyclopedic descriptions of the constellations, stars and planets. It lets you find objects in the sky using your device's built-in compass and accelerometer. Use the interactive star chart from anywhere on the globe! No need to walk away from the city lights - the star chart shows you all of the stars and planets at their exact spots. Connect your telescope to it and bring the distant worlds even closer.
There's even more in SkySafari 4 Pro - but Plus will keep anyone with a small backyard telescope busy for years.

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.
