The catalog lists 99,000 Hipparcos stars, 846 deep-sky objects, and constellation art by Johan Meuris.

Field notes

The described question-answer flow separates interpretation from sky calculations: the page says the language model identifies what the user means, while an astronomy engine supplies positions, rise times, and satellite-pass predictions. Other listed details include time travel to another night, a red night mode, telescope field-of-view circles, and a 580-entry encyclopedia; these are presented as app features rather than independently tested here.
