Worth the $ for students and astronomy-buffs.

I'm a bit of an astronomy nerd, so I love this app's zoom feature. This app has more features than others of its kind. It's also plainer, but I think that was the developer's intent.

My favorite feature is a "What's Up?" screen that shows planet positions at a glance. There's also an "Alert" mechanism that checks a server for notices of upcoming astronomical events.

Pretty awesome view of the night sky which zooms to reveal constellations and other celestial objects. Great learning tool for kids.
