Star Walk is enhanced for iPad 2.

Star Walk is an award-winning Education app that allows users to easily locate and identify 20,000+ objects in the night sky. The 360-degree, touch control star map displays constellations, stars, planets, satellites, and galaxies currently overhead from anywhere on Earth. Highly praised and the winner of a 2010 Apple Design Award, the latest update adds a Spectrum Bar to view frequencies other than visible light. *No Internet connection required*

Latest additions:

Vito Technology and European Space Agency have signed a partnership agreement for mutual cooperation that will bring quality content to astronomy apps developed by Vito Technology. The first result of this partnership is the Spectrum Bar feature in Star Walk 5.4. Stargazers can slide their finger up or down the Spectrum Bar to change the wavelength and move along the spectrum. Each wavelength is represented by a different color on the star map. Currently, Star Walk 5.4 is the only stargazing guide that shows the sky in this way.

Augmented Reality for iPad 2 allows users to point-and-display the sky as on any device with digital compass and camera. The same mechanism helps calibrate iPhone 4 compass to eliminate error margin completely.

Main Features:

  • Stargazing Community - Twitter integration for iOS 5
  • Augmented Reality
  • Satellites Tracking - find out where exactly the ISS is right now! (8000+ satellites)
  • Calendar of Celestial events
  • TELRAD: advanced feature to help you measure angular distance between nearby stars. Can be turned on/off in Settings menu.

Star Walk was mentioned by Julius Genachowski, FCC Chairman, as his favorite iPhone app:

"For the record, the chairman’s favorite iPhone app is Vito Technology’s Star Walk, a simple astronomy application that harnesses the iPhone’s GPS capabilities to present an on-screen view of what stars and constellations should be visible on a clear night from your current location."
- Arik Hesseldahl, at BusinessWeek
