iPad Apps #3 – GoSkyWatch Planetarium

Every now and then technology brings a moment of magic. I remember seeing my first VHS program (James Bond!) and taking 15 mins to work out what was happening. Or the first time I saw GPS in a car. GoSkyWatch is one of those moments.

When I look at the sky at night, I see stars but have no knowledge of what they all are.

Hold your iPad up over the sky and it identifies what you’re seeing. It’s beyond incredible.
