Hold the Moon in your hands. Moon Globe turns your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad into a precision instrument for viewing Earth's Moon. Satellite imagery and topographic laser altimeter data are combined to render the Moon with realistic lighting in realtime 3D.
Use the multitouch screen to manipulate the view. Spin above the surface, or switch to Telescope mode to see the Moon as it appears from your location on Earth. Adjust the display time and watch the sunlight shift over the lunar landscape. A "tag cloud" floats just above the surface, labeling terrain features and spacecraft; touch any label to find out more about that feature. Moon Globe also shows you where the Moon and Sun are in the sky with its dynamic sky compass.
This sophisticated astronomy simulation is FREE so that you can learn about Earth's Moon and wow your friends with what your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad can do. For Moon Globe fans, Moon Globe HD is also available with twice the map resolution.

Full satisfaction
So long no update…(*) //_ I hope the dev are going well _//, and this app will remain “store-present” for still a long time. As a moon lover, this app is not lesd than a necessity to me ! (*) in this crazy app world where weekly updates when not more often are the rule, it’s refreshing to see that a GOOD JOB needs none of these so frequent mostly useless “signs” of… life (?!!). Thanks to the Midnight Martian people !
Lune
Application facile à utiliser, cela a été un plaisir de l’utiliser pour cette éclipse du siècle!
Pratique et utile.
Super
Lune
Simplement d'utilisation mais très précise, et de plus une appli agréable à utiliser pour son esthétique
Beau travail
Le rendu des phases est vraiment très réaliste. Résolution largement suffisante pour se repérer. Merci.
Très bien
Très pratique et très simple d'utilisation .
Je m'en sert de carte lors de mes observations au télescope .
Beautiful and realistic
I like this app
Whenever I want to know how is the moon right now I just open it
All details are there
But there is one thing missing to call it "perfect" :
The hours of moon rise and moon set
These data are necessary to sky lovers and dreamers who want to admire or shoot the moon
I really miss this
Please add it in a further update !
;-)
Congrats anyway
