Find The Moon App

THE CHALLENGE: Book it to the Moon
Solar System

Develop an interactive app for children that uses smart phone and tablet sensory to locate the Moon (any time of the day, even below horizon), which unlocks current lunar data (phase, distance, etc), and then presents the user options for reading a "Moon" related story, view space agency photos and videos, and/or fun facts about the Moon. The goal of this challenge is edutainment and raising awareness about lunar missions around the world.

Explanation

We created an interactive app for children aged 8 to 12 that helps them find the location of the moon. It maps the user's GPS coordinates to transform the mobile into a window to the space. Keeping children in mind, it is designed as a simple and fun exercise in cosmic navigation, bringing a learning experience including space facts, pictures and videos.
