Lunarium

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

The Moon. We've been there. Now kids can too, with the Android app Lunarium. In this app, there are amazing pictures of the moon, interesting facts, and stories. There is also a feature that speaks the facts and stories to make them accessible for all ages.

Work in progress.
