Planet Earth in your pocket … and on your tablet

“ESA has updated its application for iPhone and iPad. With the launch of the ESA App V2, users can see ESA’s latest satellite imagery from Envisat in near-real time, complementing the latest news and discoveries in space exploration and Earth observation. Making full use of the iPhone and iPad touch features, ESA App V2 puts videos, images, facts and figures, ESA’s Twitter feeds, YouTube links and other information in a convenient mobile package. The ten latest satellite images of our planet are also now at your fingertips. One of the newest features is the automatic update of satellite images from ESA’s MIRAVI website, which generates acquisitions in near-real time from the world’s largest Earth observation satellite, Envisat.”
