“Works great, love the eclipse feature.”

Get the optional upgrade to watch the daylight and night move across the planet. The animated map fast forwards or rewinds time at different speeds. The upgrade also features solar eclipses, various world map looks, and the option to select a specific date and time or preset seasons.

“Excellent app for students of astronomy and
solar technology. It gives a new experience of
how the Sun and Moon meander across the sky
on a daily basis. One can construct an accurate
solar insolation curve for any location on Earth.”
