Planets

An application I've been having tremendous fun with on my iPhone touch is Planets. It's a stargazing application, but it does a lot of other things, too. It shows information about the planets and their moons, will tell you moonrise and set, sunrise and set, and also has a map showing what's currently the daylight and dark including the lights of the world via a satellite map of the globe. It's amazing. If you are interested in astronomy or just curious and have an iPhone or iPod touch, you might check it out if you don't already have it. I plan on taking mine out to my country shack when our rainy season clears out a bit more and spending some time reacquainting myself with the constellations.
