Your birthday, turned into a journey through real space
2 followers
Enter your birthday and Swayanta takes you through real space, in 3D, built from astronomers' star and galaxy catalogues. It begins with the sky as it truly was the night you were born, then carries you past the Milky Way to the edge of the universe, with you at its centre. The 43,375 galaxies stand where they have been mapped, and the images come from NASA, ESA and ESO. Try it yourself, or make one for someone you love. Free, no sign-up.
Hello, and thank you for stopping by!
By day I work in generative AI, by night I look up a lot, and Swayanta grew out of that.
I wanted it to be true to the sky, so the stars, planets and galaxies come from astronomers' own catalogues and calculations, with images from NASA, ESA and ESO. Where no map exists, like the far universe, it's built from what we know.
Try it with your birthday, or for someone you love. It's free, and I'd love to hear honestly what you felt.
