This App is possible the best I've ever downloaded. Un-put-downable, and with well-designed interface. I intend to use it for planning Astro photographic projects.

Extremely detailed and informal, worth the buy. Shows not only planets but space junk such as spent rocket boosters and satellites.

Up up and away!
