Spent some time this weekend adding a new Detail View to the Milky Way in Cosmic XR. It now features an overlaid map (based on NASA/JPL-Caltech data) showing distances from our Solar System and labeling key galactic regions. You can clearly see that the Milky Way's spiral structure is dominated by just two major arms—Scutum-Centaurus and Perseus—extending from the ends of the central galactic bar. Also added direct touch rotation, allowing for a more intuitive interaction—like spinning a record turntable—to explore galactic details. The positions of nebulae have been updated for accuracy, and to manage dense annotations, I implemented dynamic line lengths and angular scaling for interactable labels. Hope this update makes cosmic exploration more immersive and enjoyable! meta.com/experiences/9293405… The more I dive into the details, the more humbled I feel, awed by the miracle of our existence on this tiny pale blue dot.

長い間、週末の個人時間を使って取り組んできた個人プロジェクトである #MetaQuest 向けのアプリ「#CosmicXR」をついにリリースしました。太陽系のさまざまな惑星を自分の手で触れたり、回したり、操作したりすることができます。
