REVIEWS:
"Sanderson - I have dabbled with astronomy for 30 years, star maps, celestial co-ordinates, Patrick moores year book but this app renders them all obsolete. It makes locating stars and planets Childs play!"
"I am amazed! - I love this app! It does exactly as promised. Got a telescope for Christmas and hated not know what I was looking at or where to find what I wanted to look at. This app made stargazing a million times better for me and my kids!"
"I was thrilled when the cross hairs appeared on screen and Guided me to the planet that I had selected from the list. And that was only the free app!I highly recommend this app for anyone who is curious about the stars above. Well worth the purchase I say."
"Tech at it's best! - Awesome program. Any astronomer knows the computational power needed for these algorithms. And the iPhone sensors are up to the task. Unique. Buy it."

Dont buy this if you have ipad and iphone
I bought this on my ipad mini and then paid for the satellite data. I then downloaded the app on my iphone and synced with itunes but did not get the satellite data.
I emailed the author who tells me that the iphone app and the ipad are different (one has HD in the title) You cannot install the iphone app on the ipad mini and vice versa.
The icons are identical, the data is identical. You have no choice but to install 2 apps that look identical by the same author, with the same icons.
This is a rort to get you to buy the same data twice. DONT BUY THIS APP
Good, Cheap but few missing features
Wish it would show rise and set times for planets...
