This app is getting old. Could you make it better by adding more chapters and informations and animations?
Amazing!

This app is fantastic, maybe one of the best I own. I am a grad student in aerospace engineering and it has a lot of information for quick reminders and/or learning new stuff. The usefulness as a quick reference aside the animations and examples are fabulous. I would only suggest going though and finding the language errors. No glaring errors just a few terms that haven't gotten an alternate English term. Otherwise the amount of work put into this is exceedingly evident and I must give credit where credit is due. I own several of this developers apps and all are great. Keep it up and I look forward to more.
A useful compendium
DocPhyz
This app is a useful compendium on orbital mechanics & solar system data. Residual French & typos & syntax need to be cleaned up in the English version. Many of the animations are unique and very useful; some are not or do not operate smoothly (Solar System esp.). They would be especially useful for class use if VGA output were enabled in the app for iPad1. I look forward to the next version, and Parts 2 & 3.
Review
Physcist79
This app is ok but its focus on mathematics and physics lacks greatly and is basically an overview of and the history of astronomy, not astrophysics
- Fixed a bug with the display in Dark mode.
