Google sky on Droid

[ladypanther]

It is so awesome. The sky is full of stars tonight. Google sky is so awesome. Seeing the constellations is great. Jupiter is in the east, southeastern sky, btw.

I love my Droid.

You can see them without going outside too

No....you can see where they are positioned. Makes the real night sky even better.

Jangler does, but it's pointed at some girl's window.

These glow in the dark stars on my ceiling don't line up

No, I do not. It would really cool to have a nice telescope. Do you have one?

Saltman does, but his is pointed at Jangle trying to figure out who he's looking at.

what i meant was, the app doesn't rely on actually seeing the sky. it uses the GPS i think. so you can sit on your couch or anywhere for that matter, and the app works just the same.

Yep thats why you can hold it to the floor and see what stars are on the southern hemisphere

I agree LP... it is awesome... we went on a walk late last night and it was clear as a bell and I was looking at it in a dark spot... I don't recall ever seeing Jupiter being that bright, of course, without Google Sky, I may have seen it and not known what it was.
