Southern Stars (APP)

Title: Southern Stars

Author/Creator: DeBenedictis, Tim; Tschumy, Bill; and Hurst, Aaron

Publication date/ Creation: 1993, San Francisco, CA

ID: http://www.southernstars.com/index.html

Description: SkySafari is a celestial travel guide, designed to help you explore the night sky. It is a powerful planetarium program that fits in your pocket, with thousands of stars, planets, and other objects at your fingertips. And SkySafari can turn your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch into a 21st-century telescope controller.

SkySafari Lite is the "intro" version of SkySafari, designed for beginners in astronomy. SkySafari Lite contains 120,000 stars to 8th magnitude, and the 220 best-known star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies in the sky (the Messier and Caldwell catalogs).

If you have an iPhone with a compass, SkySafari and SkySafari Lite can show you the sky in the same direction that you're holding your phone. You can identify stars and planets by holding your phone next to them, and you can find any object in the sky by following an arrow that points in its direction. (excerpts taken from website)
