  1. 5/5Unique Approach to Moon Geography

    I have several moon atlases, but this one is special. Using photo mosaics you are shown the moon as it appears today with important features named. These views include the visible surface during different phases. You can select the features you want to see. No one else provides this as far as I know. As a retired science teacher I can recommend this as fun and educational for astronomers of all ages. It is useful for moon watching with telescope or binoculars. This is an investment that will pay dividends for years to come.

  3. 4/5Looks Great

    I haven't gotten into the field with this, and from the weather report don't think I will soon, but this will be a very useful program. When we observe we normally "walk" the terminator from top to bottom identifying all the craters along the way. I appreciate that I can set the view to match that of my Newtonian reflector and don't have to learn to read upside down as the labels are rotated. I would like a little more zoom and names of those reams on the dark side of the Moon that are the first and last to catch light. I know I get a bigger picture in portrait mode but I would like to be able to put the iPad in my lap locked in landscape mode so I don't have to be as worried about it slipping between my legs.

  4. 3/5Best Idea; Incomplete Implementation

    The only Moon maps that clearly label what is visible along the terminator unfortunately lack further information. After learning the name of a feature, you must consult another reference for further details. Brief biographical or historical information about each name would be a big improvement. Still, I could identify nothing from other Moon maps, but quickly identified the large, lit crater extending well into the dark side of the Moon on the night I bought the app: The Jura Mountains surrounding the Bay of Rainbows on Moon Day 10.5. Satisfaction!

  5. 5/5Excellent idea, excellent implementation

    Bought the app tonight. Does exactly what it says it does, and does it well. I have no complaints. Automatically went to a map that perfectly matched what I was looking at. Just had to adjust the S up setting to match my telescope.
