iPhone App

Hope this is in the right place!

Found an astronomy app that I haven't seen mentioned before, but I'm finding it really useful. It's called 'Star Atlas' and it's got some cracking features. It lists Constellations, Messier Objects, Other Deep Sky Objects and Double Stars. Click through them for a map of the sky where the object is found. You can also zoom in and out of that view. Another nice touch is that the screen is red tinted by default so it does less damage to your night vision.

If I remember correctly, it's also FREE!

See what you think.
