Does this mean it points just back at the user?

Technically everyone is the centre of the observable universe.

Underrated comment 🔥

Yea unfortunately I couldn't try it myself, but the write-up was fun

Waiting for someone to make a FOSS one for Android

You can just use Sky Map and search for Sagittarius.

What you actually want to search for is Sagittarius A*, but Sky Map doesn't have that, so the Sagittarius constellation is close enough to give you the general direction.

Why so many upvotes for an advertisement?

I thought the write-up was worth sharing, the dev talks a bit about the process. The app itself looked free and it's labeled as not collecting any data, so I didn't think much of it

Although if there ARE concerns I'm happy to take it down

Spoiler alert - it points up.

Where is Naboo relative to the centre of the galaxy? You guys did shoot on location, right?
