As you scan the sky, the Identify mode will point you to the nearest object of your choosing. For example, say you wanted to know if there was a galaxy in a nearby field-of-view. Enter the Identify mode, choose "Find GX" from the nine object types. If there is a galaxy nearby, Sky Tour will identify it and guide the way. It's a wonderful way to learn about unfamiliar regions of the sky.

The Identify mode is fun for explorers who like to scan the sky just to see what they can find. When you think you've found something just ask Sky Tour's Identify mode to "Find Any "

Sky Tour is your magic carpet to the Universe
