It took over a thousand years and great sacrifice to figure out what the Solar System looks like; and how it works. Connecting the dots of events from the age of Ptolemy to the Copernican Revolution leading up to modern day astronomy, where weve only begun to discover new planetary systems and Earth-like exo-planets, this app is a quick and immersive journey to space.

It is a glimpse of how our planetary system works, what the planets are made up of and how these massive bodies interact with each other gravitationally. Touches lightly on the physics under it, with a tasteful use of visual explanations and mildly interactive content.

To understand the Solar System is to appreciate how odd and yet unique our own planet Earth is, with all its teeming life and biodiversity. It is likely the first step towards becoming a good soldier of science. More importantly it is a gentle tug to the scientific temper in each one of us.

I really hope you enjoy reading this app as much as I did creating it. Please feel free to share your thoughts and suggestions for I always want to make it better by next versions
