Description
NASA's Spacecraft 3D is an augmented reality (AR) application that lets you learn about and interact with a variety of spacecraft that are used to explore our solar system, study Earth, and observe the universe. Using a printed AR Target and the camera on your mobile device, you can get up close with these robotic explorers, see how they move, and learn about the engineering feats used to expand our knowledge and understanding of space. Spacecraft 3D will be updated over time to include more of the amazing spacecraft that act as our robotic eyes on the earth, the solar system and beyond!
Please look forward to interacting with even more iconic NASA missions in future updates!
This app requires a camera.

Customer Reviews
Pretty cool
Definitely better than the 3D imager app they made for SLS but i'm still waiting for jpl to make an eyes on the solar system app. Not so keen on the AG thing with the camera but i guess if you wanna make it look like curiosity is exploring your desk it's kinda cool. Only downside is it gives you a few, then you gotta DL the rest of the vehicles. Good job JPL👍
Broke It
This last update won't.
I've been using this App since early 2012, but this latest update won't load on my 3rd generation iPad, the one that introduced the Retina display. I'm rather disappointed.
Was a cool app until latest update
This app keeps telling me my iPad is incompatible with my iPad. I'm not paying hundreds of dollars for a new iPad just for this app. Can no longer use it in my classroom.
