Two points: 1) I downloaded and played around with the Star Map 3D astronomy app mentioned. Hmmm. The UI is not especially friendly but the graphics are pretty. For $2, it's OK but not great. My collection of astronomy apps for my iPhone and iPad is... let's just say it's extensive. I still prefer Sky Safari 3 for iOS devices. http://www.southernstars.com/products/skysafari/index.html I use it to control my telescope at star parties. The wifi connection between my phone and telescope is always a hit with viewers. I just loves me some iOS astronomy apps. 2) Yes, we still play Cosmic Light Shows here at the planetarium. http://clarkplanetarium.org/venue/cosmic-light-shows/ Seth -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Daniel Holmes Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2012 10:00 PM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Star Map for iOS. I always liked laser zeppelin a little more... Are there still laser shows at the planetarium? Dan -- Sent from an iPad. There should be less mispelings, but more errors.
