# Galaxy Explorer
Galaxy Explorer is an open-source Windows Mixed Reality application that was originally developed in March 2016 as part of the HoloLens 'Share Your Idea' campaign where the community submitted and voted on ideas. Since then Galaxy Explorer has been constantly updated with new features, also adding new platforms in the process.
You can read about the development of Galaxy Explorer on Microsoft Docs.
