Astronomy App ?

[whitecloud197]

More Specifically im looking for an App for some sort of Meteor Shower Calendar, I did do some looking in the app store but couldn't find anything just wondering if anyone has anything like this or something similar. basically to tell you the dates of astronomical events, like meteor showers and what not. Would be nice to know ahead of time so I can actually remember to get out and look at the stars that evening.

I use the following apps:- 1. Google Sky Map 2. Iridium Flares, for IR flares 3. SunMoon. I don't know of any Apps for meteor showers, but you could just use the internet. If you find an app I would be interested in it. I'll watch any other replies to this question.

There is an app that does just this! Its called Meteor Shower Calendar. It also has a nice option that will change the colors of the app around sunrise/sunset times for use at night. Click here:
