WinStars is a free multi-platform 3D planetarium that accurately represents celestial objects at a given moment. It also allows you to virtually travel through our solar system, the Milky Way, and the nearest galaxy clusters. Additionally, a dedicated news feed keeps you up-to-date with the latest discoveries in astrophysics, which can be visualized within the software. WinStars is a constantly evolving software, with new features regularly added to make it a tool dedicated to the exploration of our Universe.

It is recommended to consult the documentation available at this address:  https://winstars.net/docs/en
