I’ve blogged this application before. A terrific astronomy simulator that shows you the visible planets and constellations in 2D or 3D. It also shows visibility times and a real time map of the earth showing the traveling terminator.
Dana has had well over a million downloads as his is one of the best astronomy applications out there for your phone or the iPad. And it works very well on the older 3G that I own, something that cannot be said for other popular astronomy applications. He gives the application away, so rush right out there and pick it up. You won’t be sorry if you are ever trying to find the planets to photograph them with just a camera or telescope without the GOTO feature.
Anyway, here is the film … you can see that the application is always in the process of being downloaded somewhere. I find this very cool …
