Super educational, absolutely stunning in VR. Friendly robot guide has plenty to say about each location, and might be great especially for kids with an interest in space. A solar system mode would've been nice. I believe the developer just mostly settled on "they can do it themselves in flight mode" which, I mean, it's still nice you can technically do it, I guess, but also it felt like it was a small amount of effort away from just putting in a button. Real distance tours would've been cool for those that might be overwhelmed by the sheer size of the sun. You can, however, show a real distance perspective from any planet at the push of a button. Should've utilized this for a solar system view. Still, I don't think there's much else like this, so I appreciate having it at all.
Just came back from there... It is full of stars... I have previous version from Oculus store and hesitated a bit to get this one as the previous version was big too.. Simple... Wait.. I just realized this is the same version.. or not... hm.. whatever, author deserve my Euros.. :-) This one? It is a must for every parent that likes his kid to understand the space. (which should be every parent with VR tbh) I love universe and this is so far the best representation of planets in VR so far. Not even universe sandbox has such details of surface etc. There are just two things I miss (and I hope author will read this) A) time - I'd love to have an option to watch planets rotate in their natural cycle. Isn't it interesting that it takes Earth 24 hrs to spin while for Jupiter it is just 9.5 hrs... B) Earth could have double or triple layer of textures. Clouds moving in different pace than surface being in different height. Not even NASA sims have it and honestly, I'd love to just sit on the orbit thinking about my small problems and watch the planet turn... Just don't attempt to land on Europe... In both cases...
Good overall but needs more updates
In 2024 this VR experience is still beyond breathtaking! Titans of Space has been updated and even takes advantage of the quality of newer high-end headsets. Finally, I must say for each day this experience is not used in schools to educate and inspire kids on the subject of astronomy is a crime. Do not hesitate you will not be disappointed!
Best experienced in VR so you can get a better sense of scale. This is a great way to learn about the universe as we know it. If only more educational style entertainment was like this. Like this is close to the future of what was dreamed for holodeck type education.
