Space Shuttle Goes Virtual
Google Cardboard Virtual Reality Android App, Space Shuttle Tour Cardboard launches. Get up close with the Space Shuttle, and explore amazing 360-degree panoramic photos.
- (1888PressRelease) January 04, 2016 - You may recall some memories of the cardboard spaceship you once built, when you first encounter Lynx VR's Space Shuttle Tour for Cardboard, as it launches in the Google Play store today. Behind its icon, a little cardboard space shuttle, hides a nifty app for Google Cardboard, which enables you to get up-close with the iconic Space Shuttle orbiter.
The app allows you to explore more than fifty panoramic photos of the NASA Space Shuttle in virtual reality. You can look around to see the scenes in every direction, and hear the atmospheric sounds of the Vehicle Assembly Building, or VAB, at NASA's Kennedy Space Center.
"Looking at the Shuttle in virtual reality gives a unique sense of scale," said Thomas Papa, Co-Founder of Lynx VR. "It allows anyone with a modern smartphone and a cardboard viewer to experience being in and around the most technologically advanced machine ever engineered by man."
The 360-degree photos are grouped in six different sets, depicting different Shuttle sections and different angles of view, including locations such as the shuttle's belly, the cargo bay and the flight deck.
You can get Space Shuttle Tour Cardboard for free, on Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lynxvr.SpaceShuttleTourCardboard).
