Please update to work with IOS X             Great app no iPhone X update Bad Ace!!!
Fantastic                     Review DivZero574589
Very detailed almost like having a globe of the moon The web links come in handy                     Moon Globe HD Freaked birds.
This is a great app yo help you get familiar with the moon The shadows are nice to help you to see the moon like you would through a telescope A very dimple but very good app                     Great app to learn the moon Swetz
Just as the title says wonderful application for those interested in astronomy or just curious about our cosmic neighbor                     Beautiful excellent app MEArch
I ve been using this app for some time for Lunar feature observation identification It great to be able to reverse the atlas left to right as seen in my 8 SCT and small refractor Sure beats trying to look through the back of a paper atlas at the scope Recommended Don Horne                     Good iOS app for Lunar observers Sibmjl
This is a great aide to telescopic observation                     Great companion to my telescope hmosc
This app is a great into to the lunar surface features                 Great tool for moon gazer Wilcodan
A superbly stunning view of our nearest celestial neighbor Full of information and links to pretty much anything moon                     Our nearest neighbor astroparticles
I do like it high quality nice features BUT the lat long perspective is NOT working I bought this app because I wanted to simulate the look of the moon from different lat longs which the app lets you set in telescope mode but even with location services disabled it did not work if operator error pls provide instructions if bug pls fix                 Nice BUT Neptunis III
I am an amateur astronomer who observes and conducts public outreach on a regular basis I have many Moon references in book form plastic maps and iPhone iPad app formats They all provide great information But the one resource that is always with me and used most often outside at the telescope is this app It is visually stunning versatile readable loaded with useful information and very easy to use And it does not turn into paper m ch in heavy dew situations The ability to clearly recognize and locate lunar features at various scale of magnification is a tremendous aid whether I m trying to find something new or in effectively conveying understanding to the general public Thank you so much for producing and continuing to supporting this outstanding tool                     Superb Navigation Outreach Tool Lulu's Mom & Dad
This app is almost great but has some serious flaws that interfere with its use outdoors to actually find and observe features on the moon in a telescope or binoculars For some reason even though the iPhone version has a nice button for the telescope view the iPad version requires that you navigate through a menu to switch to telescope view If you are using Moon Globe while doing actual observing telescope view is essential Worse if you search for a lunar feature then Moon Globe switches out of telescope view and zooms in in Above Globe mode This makes you loose orientation with no idea where the feature is on the view I m seeing in the telescope unless I go back to the menu and manually select telescope view That s when the really bad news comes because Moon Glob no longer shows the feature you were looking for At a minimum to be useful in actually observing the moon If moon globe is in telescope mode when you search for and select a feature it should show that feature without leaving telescope mode Another improvement would allow an features to be selected for an observing list and all of the selected features would stay highlighted regardless of view The database and graphics of this app are excellent the usability to an actually observer is very poor             Arm chair use only not very useful observing the moon W122ard0f
This app utterly blows away all others I have used including ones costing much more Can t go wrong with this one                     Best Lunar Atlas App out there JFM 24
Fun                     Cool App IcarusAllenPoe
I particularly like the Telescope view feature to help identify what you are seeing in the eyepiece I like the way you can turn the identifications on and off and that it also provides the Apollo landing sites etc It is worth the small payment to get the HD version                     Very Useful App Chuck40911
This app is not very useful as a guide for observing the Moon simply because the terminator the line between light and dark fades vaguely across the Moon s surface rather than being a sharp line Midnight Martian seems to have imported the terminator from their Mars Globe app Mars has an atmosphere and therefore twilight but the Moon is airless and the terminator is perfectly sharp You need to know where the Moon s terminator is at any given time to identify craters and other features seen through a telescope The vague terminator is the biggest problem with this app but it also lacks information important to the serious observer such as lunar latitude and longitude libration and anything beyond the most basic information about specific lunar objects A link to wikipedia is fine when you have an internet connection and time to read a wikipedia article but I would expect a mobile app to have more information available from within the app and to have it organized in a quickly useful format         The Moon does not have an atmosphere Anthony in SF
All inclusive moon app I ve downloaded dozens of sub par apps looking for this one and just wish I found it first 360 completely zoom able view of entire moon with full labels and links You can easily spend hours blissfully lost in this app The calendar shadow function is amazing The lunar landing maps are amazing The function speed and detail are AMAZING buy this app                     BEST MOON APP justn1185
This is great information tool for anyone that wants to know about landing sites Additional surface data is good at identifying craters and other points of interests                     Moon Globe App Bit Bender

I really dig the Dark Side of the Moon This is a well mapped app and I m looking forward to any upgrades updates that may be coming in the future Thanks for a great app                     Behind the Moon Nomad662
Awesome app especially for a beginning astronomer                     Moon App Skydvr8029
Excellent Provides a perspective not possible at any one time from a telescope                     Moon app Lostintime41

And much easier to navigate too Beautiful intuitive and informative Endless fun                     Much cheaper than an Apollo rocket Hvhgft
Great app for getting an in depth view of the moon                     Good App Slrcrw
This app is amazing If you re into astronomy or not it s a must have for the iPad Just having the globe do nothing more than spin smoothly is satisfying in itself My favorite feature is the Illumination slider It accurately simulates the shadows as the Moon goes through it s phases Search for Rupes Recta the Straight Wall a 1 000 mile long fault caused by a Moon quake visible through small telescopes as a pencil line across the surface This app finds Rupes Recta quickly then simulates the shadows perfectly using the slider It s hard to believe the app is priced so low for the iPad It s great value at twice the price To Midnight Martian the author what were you thinking                     Fabulous App One of my Must Have s JoeTooCool
This is an astonishing app It s unbelievable how they are able to maintain realistic lighting contrast and shadows as the terminator progresses through the lunar month and as you zoom in on a feature the clarity remains undiminished almost to the very end I guesstimate that at it s closest zoom it s the same as using a 300x eyepiece the crater Clavius fills the whole screen Four stars because of three things the terminator needs to be more clearly defined as it appears in a telescope and giving the current longitude of the terminator would be enormously helpful to amateur astronomers Also the labels are totally white At full moon some craters like Tycho Aristarchus are also totally white so the labels can t be read Is it possible to use a font that has black borders around the letters But these are minor issues compared to the overall impact It boggles the mind                 Unbelievable Andrew4549
And mysterious I love it                 Intriguing HarkerOrrock
This is the best rendering of the moon I have ever seen You won t regret getting this for 1 buck One star off because the position on earth thing doesn t work I changed the position all over the earth and the moon view stayed the same                 Wow Zach037
Great app Easy to use I would like to see a couple of additions and changes Adding a better ephemeris with information on the phase age moon s longitude of the solar sub lunar point and the sun s selenographic co longitude would make it more useful for amateur astronomers I would also like to see better definition of the lunar terminator There is not enough demarcation between day and night making it hard to determine the phase                     One of the best Mnofi
He s got the whole moon in his hands And you can too                     He s got the sparky52t
Have had it for several months now and I find it is a useful observing aid I like the refractor view                     Handy Attractive App Jahngo
At any scale this app has the most realistic rendering of the moon and its features that I have ever seen                     Best Moon Rendering Available jayseejay
Love it                 Moon Globe MaryJV
if you like checking out the moon this is a great app                     nice Skykid43
Why did you delete the pyramid I found on the North Pole between the Whipple and Boch Craters                     If you discover something and post it on face book they will cover it with bs The International man of mystery
I love this amazing ap                     Highly recommended PG01921

I love this amazing ap                 Highly recommended
One of my favorite apps Makes my telescope obsolete and takes me to the moon up close Easy to imagine being an Apollo astronaut orbiting the moon with the HD views and zooming into a location of your choosing Awesome                 Bella Luna
Since a recent update It was stuck for days with Waiting under a blank icon so I connected to iTunes and removed and reinstalled the App The iTunes window for the app shows it in place but it does not appear on the iPhone Next update maybe     No Longer Appears on My iPhone 4S
Nice and thks                 Nice
If you need to know the phase of the moon look up or buy a newspaper If you want to see the moons geology in high def and close up get this app Very realistic telescope type view                 This is a great map
This is a wonderful resource for knowing about the moon I find this to be a beautiful app and lovers of astronomy will appreciate it If you want to get to know our one and only moon get this app                 Astronomically awesome

A very polished and detailed moon map Digging the 3D and the bonus earth and sun Easter eggs                 Well worth the 1
I love the Moon and having a great 3D model of it in my phone and iPad is incredible The globe mode is even better than the telescope mode and really makes you realize that youve only seen one side of the moon your whole life I highly recommend this unbelievable app and the Mars one too I have over 500 apps and these are my favourites by far They give you an uncanny feeling of actually being there not just of viewing the surface but actually visiting the body in space The adjustable lighting reveals that the Moon is not only 3D in the sense of being a globe but also in the sense of having actual 3D craters ect embossed into its surface It contains a stupefying amount of information about our little brother more than even an astronaut going there would need and the swipe gestures for zooming and panning and orbiting are so smoothly and intuitively interpreted that you feel like youre controlling it with your mind rather than your screen Truly astounding app thank you for this and for the Mars one as well please tell me that a similar Earth app is on the way Thanks so much for making this a universal app that works on the iPhone                 iPhone and iPad Retina
Fantastic globe of our very own Luna with many useful links to learn more about landings spacecraft and projects on the Moon Really great                 Total Lunacy
This is a very good app for someone whose into astronomy and looks at the moon every now and then I was amazed by the graphics and the amount of craters that are actually on the moon              moon globe hd
if you like checking out the moon this is a great app                 nice
This is truly HD and if Its cloudy outside your home and you cant view the moon well guess what this app shows you how the moon is exactly looking at your local time D love this app Thank You for making                 So Worth my 1 spend
Fun                 Cool App

Gorgeous simple and well designed Excellent 3D effect lunar feature names float over the terrain as you rotate the moon globe Has a peculiar otherworldly calming effect when I play with it And great info too Well worth the money get it                 Love it
This app is a great into to the lunar surface features              Great tool for moon gazer
Youre gonna love this                 Scarcely believable
Love it              Moon Globe
With this app I can see the moon just as it looks through my telescope Do u know every feature on the moon I sure dont but with this app every significant terrain feature historical moon mission etc with quick links to the web for more data Great app now I am learning the moon in addition to seeing it through my 155EDF                 Great App 4 Astronomers
No charts for rise and set not accurate with dates Does not use date and time from phone Nothing about moon phases This leaves me to doubt plotting accuracy        Not that great
Very detailed almost like having a globe of the moon The web links come in handy                 Moon Globe HD
A superbly stunning view of our nearest celestial neighbor Full of information and links to pretty much anything moon                 Our nearest neighbor
Why did you delete the pyramid I found on the North Pole between the Whipple and Boch Craters                 If you discover something and post it on face book they will cover it with bs

Tonight the moons phase is visibly off by two or three days Another night its position was off very noticeably Not ready for prime time     Not accurate at all
I really dig the Dark Side of the Moon This is a well mapped app and Im looking forward to any upgradesupdates that may be coming in the future Thanks for a great app                 Behind the Moon
