Today, I'm going to share information on an interesting application on the Google Play store that I recently came across. It was introduced to me by someone. The other day, we were looking at the sky and trying to identify the stars and planets that are visible to our eyes. Someone who was sitting near us took out his mobile phone and showed me this app to me. I found it very interesting, and it is a great way to learn what we see in the sky. Apart from just gazing at the sky, it provides a lot of information that we can learn from the app. 

I was just wondering how advanced the technology has become. I have spent several hours during my childhood looking at the sky. I don't know much about the stars and planets until my uncle explained me a few things. I'm sure many people would have had a similar experience, and they try to learn by looking at the sky. During our childhood, our parents would have given us some life lessons by looking at the sky. They would have made us eat our food by showing us the stars and the sky. With the help of the Sky View application, we can do the same.

After I was back from my travel, I took some time to go upstairs and use this app to learn more about our sky and what and all are visible there. The name of the application is Sky View, and it is available both in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. I think there are some advanced features available in the app that will make use learn more about what we are seeing but to my surprise, it showed all the starts and planets that were visible to our eyes and at the same time it also showed names of all the starts that I was able to see. This was great. I remember my uncle buying a telescope to teach his son about the sky and stars. Today, with technology, we can see and learn about these things with just our mobile phone.

The beauty of this application is that we just view the sky from this application, and it will directly show the position of all the stars and planets. It also provides some information on what that is all about. There is also a paid version of the application available, which probably has a lot more features. But it was very satisfying to watch and learn some basic things. I'm sure this can be used if we want to teach about the sky to our kids. 

The images that you see in the application was taking from the application using the screenshot feature we have in our mobile. There was a photo-taking option available, but I couldn't take photos directly from the application. Maybe there was a bug but I just managed to take the screenshots of various things for writing this article. Those are the images that you see in this article.
