Moon Globe HD - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Hold the Moon in your hands. Moon Globe HD 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.

PLEASE NOTE: Regular Moon Globe is a smaller download and is free. This HD version has slightly, not extremely, better resolution.

Great utility for amateur astronomers like me :-)

Thanks for this application which I am glad to have purchased. I'm a casual amateur (using two Schmidt Cassegrain scopes) and the application is useful for planning, refining and following up observing sessions. Our moon is the brightest object in the night sky, easily observable from ubiquitous light polluted cities. The application simplifies & optimises my lunar viewing learning experience...

Resolution ok, but a fantastic App for the money.

Brilliant

anyone wishing to identify many of the Moon's features or determine phase variations across a lunar 'day', this app does it well. Highly recommended astronomer and/or student tool - or simply a tool for anyone keen to learn more about our nearest celestial neighbour.

Love it

Very clever and fantastic photo's etc. The Nutters on YouTube say there are aliens on the moon with their blurry out of focus photographs. Well LOL this app give high def snaps no aliens with the names of every crater etc etc. It's education and fun. Sorry no aliens greys or greens anywhere. It is a must buy!

Fantastic!

Perfect for viewing and learning about the moon! An excellent astronomy app!

More magnification?

I would love to be able to be able to magnify the images at a greater rate. If Google earth can show objects as small as cars, why can't we see the moon landing remnants, for example?

Just get it

Since man first walked the earth he has looked up to the sky in wonder. Even just a few hundred of years ago, people would have paid thousands to get a close look at the moon, not to mention the far side of the moon. I am happy to pay $0.99
