Otherwise

Otherwise was founded by Bill Tschumy in 1992 to develop innovative software.

Besides programming, Bill’s other interest is amateur astronomy and astronomy education.   In 2009 he got the chance to combine his programming skills with his love of astronomy and co-authored SkySafari, one of the most popular astronomy apps for mobile devices and Macintosh.

Bill has since left the SkySafari project and is now obsessed with understanding where the deep sky objects we observe are actually located in the Galaxy.  The Our Galaxy app is the the latest result of his efforts.
