Space Mapping

Does ESRI have any product(s) for space mapping? And are there any tutorials to do such mapping in ArcGIS Pro? It would be really really cool to map the Solar System in Pro and maybe even map stuff on individual planets.

I am interested in an answer to this, too!

Hi @BobBooth1 thank you for sharing, these sources are good for mapping surfaces but what about mapping the space like the solar system?

I know GIS is used in planetary science, but I am less familiar with applications to mapping space in general.

There's this: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/js-api-arcgis/3d-gis/earths-satellites/
