Star Walk - 5 Stars Astronomy Guide

Winner of Apple Design Award 2010 for the iPad version! Featured by Apple - Best Apps of 2009, Best Apps of 2010, and in iPad TV commercials!***
Special Christmas version with Santa chasing and all the magic!

WHAT IT DOES:

Star Walk enables you to point your iPhone at the sky and see what stars, constellations, and satellites you are looking at in real-time. Please note, you will need a 3GS/4/4th gen iPod Touch for motion tracking, otherwise this app will be just a beautiful info-packed time-sensitive interactive star atlas that allows you to set your location manually to give you the most accurate picture.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY:

☆☆☆☆☆
I have over 200 apps on my phone and this is one of the best.
by BRETICUS

☆☆☆☆☆
HUGE wow factor just like the others have said. It was awesome before, but the new update made it even better!

Kids think I know everything in the sky now! by Davincimv

☆☆☆☆☆
If you want your sense of wonder back, this is your app. With 11 months experience on the iPhone 3GS and 14 years as a network administrator, I feel that Starwalk is one of the most beautiful, well-designed applications I've ever seen. It's also inspiring and fun, which are the real reasons I purchased it. It was recommended by a reviewer at the NY Times.
