New Orbitrack iOS app free for Apollo 11 Anniversary

On the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11’s first manned moon landing, a new iOS
app – *Orbitrack* – lets you explore the universe of spacecraft in orbit
around our home planet today, using cutting-edge augmented and virtual
reality technology.

Better yet: for just one day, July 20th, 2019, Orbitrack (normally $4.99)
will be offered for free on the iTunes Store.

>From the original developer of the award winning SkySafariâ„¢ apps, Orbitrack
is the first new release from Southern Stars since 2014.
It includes spectacular new graphics, incredibly detailed 3D spacecraft
models, fascinating illustrated mission descriptions, and a new database of
more than 8,000 satellites updated daily from n2yo.com and celestrak.com.

Orbitrack includes many classified military satellites, and SpaceX’s new
Starlink mega-communications-satellite constellation.

Both visual and radio observers will appreciate Orbitrack’s up-to-date
catalog, which includes frequencies and call signs for amateur radio
satellites, and predicts satellite passes and Iridium flares.

Orbitrack’s brand new voice-controlled virtual reality mode works with any
iPhone-compatible VR headset. And its rewritten augmented reaiity
(AR) capability lets you identify satellites passing across the sky in real
time, using you phone’s GPS, camera, and motion-sensing hardware.

Orbitrack supports the latest Apple hardware and showcases the latest iOS
technologies. Southern Stars founder Tim DeBenedictis writes, “When Neil
Armstrong walked on the Moon, there were only 159 satellites in orbit.
Today, there are well over 40,000. The computing power of the entire lunar
module would be dwarfed by today’s smallest cell phones. Offering our
latest satellite tracking app for free seemed a good way to celebrate the
past, while also looking forward to the future of spaceflight, both manned
and unmanned.â€

Available today for iOS devices, Orbitrack will be available for Android in
the 2nd half of 2019.
