This is the version of The Astronomical Pocket Diary for iPhone / iPod Touch.

The Astronomical Pocket Diary (APD)This cool agenda predicts the future: planet constellations (in "Planimation") and spacy events for the years 2010 and 2011!*** Features ***
Available since 1989 and cherished all over the world, the APD has been known to be used by stock brokers, managers, science teachers, sailors, gardeners, amateur astronomer stargazers etc. .. generally anyone who can benefit from having "facts about the future". It has even been described as a "Prophets Handbook"!*** Usage ***
The APD-app is dead simple. Sweep your finger over the screen and the calendar is animated! Watch the planets move in a flip-book animation. Sweep left or right to go backwards or forwards through the years. Sweep multiple times to increase the speed until the years whizz by in seconds. Tap once on the screen to stop, tapping on the left or right screen boundary will back-up or advance the calendar by a single day. Sweeping 'up' will jump to 'today'. Sweep 'down' to see the 'about-screen'.The solar system graph depicts our solar system seen from 'above' with the Sun at the centre. The interconnected lines form the true planetary aspects as you can see them in the night sky. The daily Moon-phase (illumination), Moon distance and Moon declination is a 'biorhythm' that actually exists. Exact times of astronomical phenomena are given in GMT.
National and international holidays, anniversaries, VIP birthdays and important events in history connects our societies and make a great general knowledge quiz.*** Relevance ***
It is fascinating to watch the planetary movements and ponder what influence they have. For example the stock market crash (Black Monday) of 1987 happened exactly on Jupiter opposition, which will happen again on 21. September 2010 and 29. October 2011. Of course if you don´t believe in this psychology you'll enjoy the all-night visibility of that bright planet which the greeks call Zeus. The 'orbitgraph' gives a quick reference of the changing of evening and morning stars and the 13 (!) signs of the zodiac, where all 5 naked-eye-visible planets can be found.The world is ever more aware about the environment, energy and incidences that shape us. This diary helps to stay in touch with our planet and provides inspiration and awareness. Plan your celebrations with a wealth of information about the future!*** Features ***
