Google Sky Map

[pss53]

Anyone used it?

Just wondered what peoples thoughts were on it ? It seems to be pretty accurate with GPS turned on although one or two planets are a little off/out of line when pointing at the sky?

Edited to say, this is an app on android phones...

I Use it on an Orange San Fransisco (£99 PAYG at launch - Bargain) not the most powerful Android Phoen but works quite well... much better than the Mysky I bought when they first came out...

Only thing to watch is that you shut it down properly or it can be a battery eater...

There are quite a lot of other useful astronomy related apps for Android phones as well...

You might want to catch up on this thread...

As well as the Essential Compass,Spirit Level and Red torch apps...
