I recently downloaded an app on my iPhone called APOD.  This is an application where you can view different pictures of space, from different locations.  APOD, which stands for Astronomy Picture of the Day, is a project from NASA, and it contains the largest collection of astronomical pictures on the internet.  I downloaded this application about a week ago, and I have at least glanced through a couple of pictures every day, just to see what the new picture of the day was going to be.  I like this application, because I think that it is interesting that no matter where you are, you can see a different picture of space at any time of the day, from any place.  


Since the pictures are all real pictures that are taken through Hubble and other satellites, this app has helped me to further understand what some galaxies, stars, constellations, and planets look like.


Also, this app was able to show me a picture of the Venus Transit, which I unfortunately was not able to see because of the weather.

Below are pictures from the application.
