01 / Choose your stars
Start with an origin, then choose where you want to go. This snapshot supports Gaia IDs; familiar star names are not yet included.
03 / Plan departure
A hypothetical calendar estimate. Not onboard time; stars stay fixed in this model.
YOUR STAR LINE
Your journey starts here.
SCHEMATIC · NOT TO SCALE · NO HAZARD ASSESSMENT
Search for your starting star, choose a destination, then plot your route.
04 / Explore along the way
Find cataloged stars near your route. Nebulae and black holes are not included in this snapshot.
Candidates are near a straight segment, not necessarily on the path. Adding a stop changes the route and arrival estimate.
What this journey assumes
Static star positions and straight segments between your chosen stops. Constant speed with instantaneous acceleration and braking. Duration uses Julian years of 365.25 days; arrival adds that duration to the UTC Earth calendar. Gravity, fuel, collisions, star motion and time dilation are not modeled. Dates after year 9999 are shown as elapsed years only. Display precision is not a claim of astronomical accuracy.
