Solar Monitor
|
DescriptionWatch solar flares in near real-time and observe particles of solar wind before it affect Earth's environment. Solar Monitor provides the very latest space weather data and four of NASA/SDO (Solar Dynamics Observatory) high resolution images of the sun.Once a solar flare or a geomagnetic storm occurs, you immediately see the level of activity on the status display. More than 20 different charts, plots and solar images are updated around the clock and give you an overview about current space weather conditions. A sudden rise in electron flux and kp-index can be more exciting than watching a thriller. When an energetic burst of solar wind plasma hits the magnetosphere, collisions of charged particles often causes a geomagnetic storm and auroral lights. Solar Monitor Features: 1.

Was good until 4.3 (1 star) This app hasn't had an update in awhile and is not iOS 4.3 compatible. If you fall into the 4.3 realm then do not buy as this app as it will not load info when launched and usually crashes about 5 seconds after being launched. Use to be great prior to the 4.3 version of iOS. I never have had an app that doesn't function at this level and I don't believe app developers should profit from a non-functioning app. I am kind of shocked that apple No Alerts, Because The Forecast Is Fraudulent. (1 star) No matter what storm is in progress they never see it coming. It always reads "Activity expected to be Low"
