- Worth noticing
- The site flags that roughly one-third of the ultraviolet map, especially the galactic plane, is predicted from other wavelengths.
Field notes
Flight speed changes with distance: the interface says travel slows near celestial bodies and spans light-years between stars. Visitors can select a destination for automatic flight, descend toward planetary surfaces, and alter the time rate from real time to as much as 30 days per second. The source panel also credits public datasets and notes that the Milky Way overview is a schematic model, not an observed image.
