Nasa
is Coming To The iPhone
NASA is coming
to the iPhone. The US space
agency announced on Friday
that it has created a free
NASA application for the
popular Apple smartphone
and the iPod Touch.
NASA said the application,
available through the Apple
App Store, provides “information,
videos, images and news
updates about NASA missions.”
Users, for
example, can track the International
Space Station and other
spacecraft orbiting the
Earth and access NASA countdown
clocks, NASA said.
NASA said
the application was developed
by its New Media Team at
the Ames Research Center
in Moffett Field, California.
We’re
excited to deliver a wide
range of up-to-the-minute
NASA content to iPhone and
iPod Touch users, said Gary
Martin, director of the
New Ventures and Communications
Directorate at Ames. The
NASA App provides an easy
and interesting way for
the public to experience
space exploration.
