MySkyPics organizes astronomy experiences and makes them easy to share with others. • Add smart telescope photos into a sky object focused photo album. • Add observations without a photo as a Sighting. ASTRO PHOTO GALLERY Start by picking an object in the app and add its photo from your Camera Roll. MySkyPics is designed to hold photos of thousands of sky objects — sun, moon, solar eclipse, lunar eclipse, planets & moons, comets, meteor showers, asteroids, dwarf planets, stars, star clusters, galaxies, and nebulae - including all Messier and Caldwell objects. It even has a special place for photos of objects not included in the app, labeled ‘My Objects’. As a photo is added for a sky object, it is instantly tagged with that object’s tags. Any custom tag(s) you’ve created can also be attached. Expand your record with optional place and notes. Objects added to the album can be quickly found with Search and browsed with a swipe. SIGHTINGS RECORD Sightings makes MySkyPics a reference resource of your astronomy experiences. Because not all astronomy viewing can be recorded in a photograph, Sightings is a special option for recording details of observations without photos. Record the details of a sighting — date, confidence, magnitude, opposition, place, notes, and tags. WEB RESOURCES Most sky objects also link to a Wikipedia article with more information on the object. Many also have links to a NASA ‘Picture of the Day’ article. (Internet access needed to access these links.) One can also add Wikipedia and NASA links for sky objects that are added to the app.
