Built by people who love the southern sky.
The best planning tools were always built for the northern hemisphere. We built one for ours.
Southern Astro started on a freezing winter night in Tekapo, fumbling with three different apps to figure out when the Milky Way core would clear the mountains. We thought: the southern sky deserves a dedicated, beautiful, beginner-friendly planning home.
Today the app helps stargazers and photographers across New Zealand, Australia, Chile, Argentina and South Africa decide where and when to head out — combining moon, weather, galactic core position and aurora forecasts in one place.
For everyone
Beginner-friendly explanations alongside pro-grade data.
Southern-first
Tuned for the galactic core, Magellanic Clouds and aurora australis.

Crafted by a small team — no surveillance, no dark patterns.
