SkyViewer

SkyViewer is the streamlined, next-generation interface that transforms raw astronomical data into an interactive window on the universe, putting the power of a global telescope network at your fingertips. Its capabilities make advanced astronomical research accessible to everyone by allowing you to launch scientific observation campaigns with a single click, leveraging intelligent scheduling that automatically matches your targets to the best available telescopes in the SkyMapper network.

You can follow live observations from around the world, track discoveries in real time, and when your own telescope is connected via SkyBridge, you gain the unique ability to remotely observe through other SkyBridge-enabled telescopes, turning local cloudy skies into clear views from the other side of the planet. SkyViewer serves as the central platform for collaborating on global science projects and joining a vibrant community of citizen explorers and researchers.
