Unparalleled Detail
Night Side Textures
High resolution satellite imagery shows city lights and can be used to illustrate the effects of light pollution on the night sky.
Volumetric Clouds
Digistar 7 uses the latest satellite imagery to generate a new high resolution cloud texture every 24hrs. As you land on earth the texture is replaced by fully customizable volumetric clouds.
Reflectivity
Digistar utilizes physically based rendering to accurately render the reflectivity of land, sea, and the atmosphere.
Atmospheric Scattering
Digistar 7 incorporates an advanced algorithm for rendering atmospheres which includes real life phenomena such as Rayleigh and Mie scattering.
Ultra-High-Resolution Textures
Digistar combines several ultra-high-resolution 8k textures, including light & dark side terrain textures, daily cloud textures and auroras.
Digistar Astronomy Atlas
The Digistar Atlas is an extensive compilation of astronomical data that is constantly being added to as new scientific data is released.
The current atlas contains nearly 4 million objects, stars, nebulae, galaxies, quasars, asteroids, comets and a variety of other objects are all represented.
Digistar comes with a wide assortment of real-time scenes on a variety of STEAM topics

Real-Time Physically-Based Rendering
Digistar’s real-time graphics engine uses advanced physically-based rendering which is capable of rendering nuanced detail on planetary surfaces and highly detailed models.
Volumetric Clouds & Nebulae
Digistar incorporates an advanced algorithm for rendering volumetric data in real time. Clouds, nebulae, and the Milky Way galaxy can all be displayed in volumetric form in real time.
Particle system rendering generates weather, volcanos, geyser, fire, and other effects in real time.
Black Hole Rendering
The gravitational lensing effect of Schwarzschild black holes can now be rendered in Digistar. A black hole can be defined by its Schwarzschild radius, and then be placed in any composition, layer, or draw mode.
Anything rendered behind the black hole will be distorted, and characteristic effects such as Einstein rings can be seen.
Comets
Comets in Digistar are automatically and realistically visualized with both ion and dust tails that assume their correct orientations with regard to the Sun.
Digistar comets offer a high degree of customizability, allowing adjustments for the size, color, brightness, glow size, and texture of a comet’s coma, dust tail, and ion tail. The length of a comet’s tail adjusts automatically based on its distance from the Sun, making a comet’s position at perihelion easily observable.
