iOS Pick: Star Chart
Star Chart lets you explore all of the planets of the solar system, along with their moons and sun. It's all rendered in 3D with beautiful visual effects. There's also a time shift feature, where you can see what the sky looks like 10,000 years forward or backward in time. Tapping on something in the sky will give you interesting facts including the distance of the object and its brightness. You can use gestures to zoom into things and see extra details.
Get Star Chart, now free, in the iOS app store here. To hear more about Star Chart from Andy Ihnatko, check out MacBreak Weekly episode 468.
