TL;DR
Galactic Compass is a new app that points users towards the supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*, at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Developed by Matt Webb using ChatGPT and Xcode, the app features a simple interface with a bright green arrow that always points towards the galactic center. While the black hole itself doesn't emit light, its immediate vicinity is bright due to the superheated matter it pulls in. The app is a fun exploration of ChatGPT's capabilities and provides a global galactic perspective for users interested in astronomy and space exploration.
