Astronomy and observation

Understanding how the universe was born, learn the basic dynamics. Discover our solar system. This app allows you to have a complete overview of astronomical observation or very detailed information about each planet in the solar system. Are treated: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, exoplanets and the major bodies of the universe. A practical section will guide the novice to the choice of the telescope and to modern recording techniques. There are also tools for the *real time tracking* of the Sun, ISS, NOAA and HST. You can see the status of the solar wind in real time or, alternatively, you can calculate all the visible passes over your city of the International Space Station. Planets' physical data and a list (with a description) of all Messier objects are included in this very complete app! THIS APP IS FOR EVERYONE: students-astronomers-novices. Italian version available, search in the Store.

Features:

  • Astronomy: detailed descriptions
  • Our planet
  • Solar system and cosmology
  • Handbook for choosing telescope
  • CCD and astronomical sensors
  • Tracking of main satellites and probes
  • Real time data and images from Nasa-Soho
  • Complete Messier catalog and descriptions

Seems like an interesting app but can only view Cosmology in trial. Not enough for me to make a buy decision.

Very good for beginners and advanced astronomers. I like the fact it has a complete Misner catalog with explanations and references.

Not as up-to date as it should be (e.g., there's no mention of the New Horizons mission to Pluto) and threadbare in places (little mention is made of the Mars rovers and their individual contributions), but there is a lot of material to read here and ample illustrations. Marred by a few misspellings and a few diagrams that require squinting by an older generation, it's otherwise a good starting point for would-be astronomers.
