When I'm planning a night of observing I like to have data about the times of dusk and info on the phase and placement of the Moon. I get that and lots more from a very handy app called "LunaSolCal". https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lunasolcal/id390175338?mt=8 For just plain eye candy appeal I like showing folks one called "Emerald Observatory for iPad". https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/emerald-observatory-for-ipad/id364904759?mt=... Since I usually run the refactor at SPOC (where we spend a lot of time looking at Jupiter and Saturn) the one I use there far more than other app is Gas Giants. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/gas-giants/id397831483?mt=8 patrick
