Show HN: DailySpace, Android app for exploring space photos and rocket launches

Hi HN,

I’ve always been fascinated by space and how much is happening beyond what we usually see day to day. I wanted a simple way to explore space photography and learn what I was actually looking at, without jumping between lots of different sites or long articles.

So I built DailySpace, an Android app for exploring a large collection of space photos with short and clear explanations. You can browse thousands of images of galaxies, nebulae, planets, stars, black holes, Earth, and different NASA missions organized into categories or found through search.

As I kept using it myself, I added things I thought were missing elsewhere, like a rocket launches and space mission tracker where you can see upcoming launches, revisit past missions, and read about their goals, vehicles, agencies, and timelines.

I’d love feedback on:

What features are missing? Would you use such an app? Is the app works smoothly on your device?

Happy to answer questions!
