11# Astrolabe
2+Astrolabe (%astrolabe) is a one-stop shop %docket app for exploring Urbit address space. Main features: ID Search, Sigil Search, Sky Chart, and Ship View (for viewing a given ship's details). Astrolabe integrates with %pals wherever possible, and contains documentation to explain the many quirks of Urbit address space to a new user.

4+# Justification
5+There should be a place on Urbit to explore Urbit address space. It will help new Urbiters get their bearings, and be a useful tool for anyone who wants to explore. Having open-source tools for this in one place _on Urbit_ is important.
6+I like the name _Astrolabe_, because it's an old-timey guide to the heavenly bodies. _Planisphere_ could also be cool.

8+# Proposal
