PocketSky app for iPhone and iPad

The Armagh Planetarium is Irelands premier source of information on space, astronomy and science.

Now you can bring a virtual planetarium with you in your pocket, and use it to discover the wonders of the night sky. The Sun, Moon, Planets, and Constellations will be displayed as they actually appear from locations in Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland.

If you have an iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 or latest generation iPod Touch, the view of the sky will move as you move, allowing you to quickly put a name to what you are seeing.

Once youve enjoyed the virtual sky, check out the latest information from the Armagh Planetarium, and plan your next visit.

Note: This app will only function properly within Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Older iPhone and iPod Touch devices running OS 4 are supported, but automatic tracking is limited to up/down.
