WikiSky.org is an interactive online sky map presenting itself as an interactive sky map. The site links to sections including Getting Started, Inhabited Sky, News@Sky, an astro photo forum, a blog, a FAQ, a press page and an API.
An interactive sky atlas for visualizing digitized astronomical images or full surveys, superimposing entries from astronomical catalogues or databases, and accessing related data from Simbad, VizieR and other archives. It is available as Aladin Desktop, a Java application, and Aladin Lite, a browser-based version.
In-The-Sky.org provides astronomy news and interactive guides to the night sky. The site offers a planetarium, sky guide, weather forecast, object search and catalogs, an orrery and 3D universe views. It also lists events such as oppositions, occultations and meteor showers, with rise and set times shown for a selected location.
OMG SPACE is a series of visuals created as a graphic design thesis project to illustrate the true scale of the solar system. All planets, including the sun and dwarf planets, are shown to scale, as are their distances from the sun, at a ratio of 1:647. Created in 2011 by Margot Trudell, the site's data is only current to early 2011, with minor design and development updates in 2015.
Space Weather News is an educational resource for documentaries, courses, books, reference material, or self-learning.
WorldWide Telescope is a suite of free and open source software and data sets that combine to create scientific visualizations and stories. Its ecosystem includes a Windows application, an interactive web app, and toolkits for Python and TypeScript/JavaScript.
Solar System Scope is an online 3D simulation of the Solar System and night sky in real time, showing the Sun, planets, dwarf planets, comets, stars and constellations. It also offers a free model of the Solar System and night sky with accurate positions of objects. A desktop version and an Android app are available.
