A breakthrough electronic book about the Solar System, offering hours of interactive exploration and presenting a treasure trove of visual information. Best-selling author Marcus Chown leads us on a grand tour through the incredible diversity of ...
For the price this app really needs new content I would expect information and imagery from New Horizons Rosetta Dawn and possibly Juno The lack of new content at a 10 price point makes me feel ripped off That said I found the layout great With more up to date content this would be an easy 5 stars         Nice but needs an update CountSut
I like this app but it s in severe need of an update             Needs An Update Jerry Applehed
So this freezes constantly and I mean constantly It doesn t run for more than visualizing one or two planets I have deleted and reloaded it multiple times without a fix When it does work it is completely silent even the song I assume they re supposed be some sound here I m not running it on old machine this is an iPad Pro As others have mentioned there is been no new content added for probably 10 months judging from the dull yellow brown fuzzball they use as a model for Pluto This wasn t exactly cheap as apps go certainly not in the same league as Elements for quality I would get my money back if I can figure out how     Freezes constantly Oinmartini
Allows you to view the bodies of our Solar System with pages of text and images with an incredible Solar System model in 3D that can be expanded shrunk sped up and slowed down Every bit as good as the author s reference on The Elements However data in the App recent images of Pluto come to mind really need updating             Amazing Solar System reference But needs recent data tonkinite
I like the interface for walking students through research methods It s cleaner faster than a full up 3D interface on the iPad and a big screen But if you re not going to keep up with the rapidly changing local universe     So no more updates to content Way behind Flyingfar
This app worked fine before the latest upgrade Now it won t even open The upgrade reaches about 20 then freezes permanently Reinstalling the app won t work either     Worthless K. Bobby
Pluto and Ceres updates needed Info is rather limited in general Visually pleasing though If it wasn t on sale and I purchased I d be somewhat disappointed             Needs update sino8r
Please update w modern Ceres Pluto and Charon images not to mention Pluto s other newly discovered moons yes we know it s classified as a dwarf planet Everything else is quite enjoyable Thank you                 Five Stars Once Updated CarbineFoX
Very good detail enhanced graphics I love it But I can t work the kinks on the crashing problem                     Great app It crashes frequently throughout my experience MCXfinity
but would like to see an update with new discoveries and updated pictures tied to Pluto and Ceres                 Great app madman31
Still my favourite app                     Beautiful Boereraat
Really worth the money because it is intuitive very attractive graphics and packed with information                     Informative and Beautiful Fione88
please surport Korean language                 Korean please 노가리여
This book is an example of a superior ebook and can be useful to everyone The rating would have been 5 star except for inclusion of warnings about man made global warming which are not supported by scientific facts even those within the book itself                 Solar System Review MK5080
I have decided this app and your BAREFOOT ATLAS are the VERY BEST apps available and I own about 800 apps GORGEOUS graphics and the best Solar System app I own I own about ten I will buy anything historical or geographical you develop I hope you will develop a comparable app on American and world history PERFECTION                     BEST of the BEST Marty's Genius
Seeing the planets and their moons in orbit is awesome It brings it all the planets into perspective for young and old alike There is a lot of information on all the planets Great app                     Superb interaction Plcarr
Hard to judge if this app is any good since it fails on starting It is basic that an app should at least run Touch Press usually does good work such as Elements but to release an app that can t even run on a 64GB iPad with iOS 7 0 3 doesn t say much Hopefully they will fix this problem soon     Could be nice if it worked Wizardljj
I will attempt to describe how phenomenal this app is It is gorgeous extremely user intuitive and hard to put down I am a homeschool mom so I am constantly looking for educational information that captures students and draws them in This app is a win from beginning to end Well done                     Majestic Cwcv
The app is beautifully done Informative and elegant Please note that those giving one star are disappointed that the app no longer works with the iPad 1 It works beautifully with later iPads though Very cool                     Absolutely beautiful Kenneth Margulies
Refund please     Very disappointing Moscuvile
It might make me close inside Uranus but now it won t let me open it                     Won t let me open Uranus REALLY FUN!!!!!!!
Many reviews are disappointed about the lack of iPad 1 support The problem is that Apple should never have brought out and advertised the iPad 1 the way they did Not including the memory etc at the time was a sign as it does make a difference The iPad 2 is really what the iPad 1 should be and probably will be the one to last the longest in future updates for various apps Though with the retina display etc it to will have seen its days The problem is not as much the developers of the app for what it is they are delivering but the makers of the tech and what they choose to release and how it is advertised perception of capabilities                     Tech DalenPendragon
Don t update something I bought that I actually can t update     Seriously Katerin1224
I paid for this app and loved using it especially with my kids Now they won t support us suckers with the iPad1 That s a lousy way to treat customers Don t become a sucker find another app that offers continued updates and respect for paying customers     Do not download this app BPWaldo
Star walk and solar walk apps give so much more for a fraction of the money Their use of the orrery animated process is much better than this app This process is the only somewhat animated feature of this expensive solar system app The developer makes other great apps This was a disappointment Not much too it and limited on features for 14         Basic for the money Kamin123
Crashes on ipad 4     Crashes Spithead
Please make this work for iPad 1 I loved the app before and now it won t work because of the decision to not let iPads update     Use to be a great app now a big waste of money Anna Davis
The latest upgrade to this app only supports Apple IOS 6 If you choose to keep your device running on Apple IOS 5 1 1 this app will not allow you to upgrade and it will not function at its full potential This developer has chosen to abandon everyone with an iPad 1 and everyone that has chosen to stay away from Apple s IOS 6     Do Not Download Kiosa
I have 230 apps on my venerable iPad I Many of them astronomy apps Only 4 developers out of 230 apps have chosen to abandon the original iPad None of those are astronomy apps Like other reviewers I paid fair money for your app with the reasonable expectation that you would continue to support it it is disappointing to find that you have abandoned that platform so quickly Will you do the same with today s latest iPad in a couple of years     No support for iPad I tpjm
We love this app I am a pre school teacher and use this app when we have our solar system week I wish I could update with the new info Other than that it is a great and informative app                     iPad 1 update GenaMarie117
Money spent and well worth it not working with original iPad is downright indignant This is horrible FIX IT     Unhappy Trevelator
This app is amazing The picture quality and interactive elements the information it can keep you glued to it for hours at a stretch I have to admit I was a bit leery about buying this It s not cheap and the only reviews up at the time of my purchase were complaints about it no longer being useable on the iPad 1 I took the leap and I m glad I did Yeah I m a big old space nerd but I really don t think that s a prerequisite for enjoying this app It s gorgeous it s fun it teaches I m long past school age but I can t imagine a better tool towards getting the kinder interested in space to give that little nudge towards really enjoying astronomy class in school This really is worth every penny                     Just amazing rockykay
I m kind of upset that this app no longer works on the iPad 1 I spent a lot of money on this and am pretty peeved that it no longer works     Why would you do this union jack<3
The developer abandoned iPad 1 users I ve deleted this app and will not purchase another app from this company     iPad 1 Plantangent
Is there anyway that Apple can stop pushing an upgrade on me that my iPad refuses to handle I don t have iOS 6 Can t run the upgrade for Solar System Even still it won t leave the App Store upgrades section     Solar System for Every iPad except iPad 1 Brick140
Please modify to work on iPad 1     Upgrade Papa Arnold
I am disappointed that the writers of this app have chosen to abandon the ipad 1 with the new update Please reconsider I have enjoyed this app greatly traveling and learing about our solar system     Disappointed with new update jhemp
I am VERY disappointed with the fact that I spend 10 on this and can t even get any more future updates for it because I am on an iPad 1     Very disappointed Siyman4
This was a cool app until the most recent IOS6 update Now the app doesn t work on my iPad2 3G wifi Even after updating the app it still crashes Hopeful a fix is in the works or this app could be deleted soon     Updated App Crashes Making the Previous Experience Horrible AskEuge
No abre no funciona no sirve no la recomiendo y no reparan el error     App crash Gammacentaury
No longer opens Please fix great app when you can open it     Bad Update 3cockers
Excellent book prior to last update now it won t even open on my iPad 2 Please fix these crashes         Used to work great Aermale

The recent update will crash on ipad 3     Do not update bmai72
I think it needs an update now it s been almost 2 years you guys have had enough time to enhance the app You are not featured anymore in any apple event or anything other apps have surpassed you in being the focus of attention The app is very good I love the Orrery it s just awesome it s the best part of the app You get to see the solar system spin from every angle as the planet you selected also spins around the sun However ipad retina came out you owe a retina update as you owe The elements a major overhaul and all your other apps I think you already updated Barefoot atlas for retina although the drawings are still not retina Please update the graphics and resolution I would like the planets to spin as they normally do in their explanation page You can then touch them to stop them move them around zoom in and out and then just do a quick flick so that they go back to spinning at their normal pace That would be cool The same way that in The Elements you don t keep the Nitrogen still the vase is evaporating and fuming I think that would be a good addition             The concept is awesome but it needs a lot of work it s just v1 0 0 awadulcecity
Basically This app has great presentation But when you dig in the writing is a long winded diatribe on the settled science of global warming Boring I would have bought Al Gores crap if I wanted to hear that Get a brain and write some original Fiction     Great imagery Full of opinion FromIraq
I expected so much more for the price The experience of this app is very similar to a glossy DK science book There are very few animations and interactive activities I am a teacher and considered this app for my classroom but I will not use it because it is little more than a glowing encyclopedia I do not consider this to be harnessing the power of technology in the classroom except for perhaps the wow factor involved with holding an iPad Students need to engage with the concepts not be passive receptacles The power of the iPad is in the ability to have dynamic content not just a book that you press a button to turn the page     Disappointing Crash Browser

Hopefully this app represents the future of interactive books The only annoyance Ive noticed is that you must have a network connection to bring up information on solar system bodies Otherwise the app crashes on my iPad 2 Other than that I highly recommend this work of art                 This is the future of textbooks

This is one of the best iPad apps hands down Superb information and imagery Worth every penny All of the less than 5star reviews clearly dont understand what this is supposed to be Its amazing and a masterpiece                 5 stars all the way
Very good detail enhanced graphics I love it But I cant work the kinks on the crashing problem                 Great app It crashes frequently throughout my experience
Best app for both adults and kids My 3 year old now knows all the planets its incredible He plays with this more than any other app                 My 3 year old is in love with this
