Google Sky Maps: This piece of GPS technology is actually able to determine where a person is based on satellite networking and triangulation, and from there determine what the entire sky pattern looks like for the user based on the angle of the camera. It can do this from inside a building or anywhere you can get a network signal. It can point you in the right direction, indicate where planets are, tell you the names and locations of different constellations, and even hunt and peck for orbital objects that you wish to find (pictured above). There really aren't any problems with this application other than the moon's location fluctuates from time to time. Other than that, this is my go-to app for scheduling dates on moonlit nights. You are welcome to use this idea to benefit your own life.
