Great App - Shame about the moon

This is a great app, would have given 5* however the moon seems to be 1/2 a orbit out on the Orrery view ie when it is a full moon in reality the moon is showing between the earth and sun (new moon) hope this big is fixed soon

Do not buy.

Rubbish. I got more info looking up at a cloudy sky than I did from this useless app.

Excellent quick and easy reference for planetary viewing

This is a great app for quickly seeing what solar system objects are observable in the next couple of days. Much easier to use than the full planetarium apps. Great for urban stargazers who have too much light pollution for deep sky objects. Being able to see the target's elevation and progress through the sky is very useful for planning observation.

Highly recommended.

A Shame Because a Great App :-(

This was working fine on my 2g ipod touch ios 4.2.1 but is now no longer compatible :-(
I plan to buy the new 5g touch in Sept, and hopefully the app will work on that.
