Cosmic Phase

A classic real-time solar system orrery on your Garmin Cosmic Phase puts a living solar system on your wrist. A real-time overhead orrery with modern design and real orbital data, built for Garmin. Cosmic Phase displays a live overhead view of our solar system with all 9 planets (yes, Pluto is included) and Halley's Comet, positioned according to their real orbital data. Positions are calculated to infinity — past, present, and future. Below the orrery: time, date, and two configurable data fields — everything you need, nothing you don't.
