We’ve just leveled up bookmarks in Gaia Sky! As of the latest update, location bookmarks are no longer limited to just camera position, orientation, and time. Now, they can also store the full settings file and the focus object — giving you a complete snapshot of your session. Additionally, on creation the user may choose what elements to persist as part of the bookmark.

This means that when you load a bookmark, Gaia Sky can restore not only where you were, but also how things were configured and what object you were focused on. Whether you’re setting up a custom visualization, preparing a presentation, or just exploring the cosmos, your environment can now be fully restored with a single click.

What’s more: all bookmark fields (except for the name) are now optional — you can selectively store in your bookmark only what matters to you.

To learn more, check out the Bookmarks documentation.

The new feature will make it into the next Gaia Sky release. As always, you can already test it by running Gaia Sky from source.
