Backyard Astronomy

RE: Backyard Astronomy
I've got the StarTracker app on my 'phone, which does more or less the same thing and uses the built in compass to give a realtime view. I also have the unfortunately-named Heavens Above app from the website of the same name, showing realtime satellite, ISS, and shuttle passes. At a glance it also shows the launch information for every vehicle (date, time, location etc).
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
