Farbound: Space & Astronomy

Farbound is an interactive space and astronomy app for iPhone and iPad. Explore a 3D solar system, find stars and planets in the night sky, and try the science with your own hands.

Build a rocket and fly it
Assemble Falcon Heavy part by part at Launch Complex 39A, count it down, take the stick to orbit and land a booster. The first half of the build is free.

Look up tonight
Point your phone at the sky to find stars, planets and constellations from where you stand. See upcoming sky events, track the International Space Station live and follow the asteroids passing Earth.

Walk other worlds
Travel the 3D solar system, stand on Mars beside Perseverance, fly Ingenuity and return to the Apollo 11 landing site.

Hear the universe
Listen to a real black hole, raised 57 octaves. Farbound turns real space data into sound and tells you exactly what you are hearing.

Experiment with physics
Sculpt gravity with your fingers, split starlight into its colours and drain Earth's oceans to see the ground beneath them.

Read and listen
Walk through Earth's deep history, explore missions and discoveries, and follow narrated chapters from our planet to deep space.

Farbound has free content, no ads and no accounts. Farbound Core is an optional one-time purchase that permanently unlocks the core collection of stories, simulations, missions and narration.
