ISS Transit Prediction Pro 2.2.2
This application generates InternationalSpaceStation (ISS) Transit Predictions for the Sun, MoonandPlanets.The user specifies a location, which includes latitude,longitudeand elevation. The application downloads the latestorbitalinformation (Two Line Elements or TLEs). The applicationgeneratesa transit prediction map which contains prediction pathsfor eachtransit within a specified alert radius.*** Please try the ad-supported ISS Transit Prediction Freebeforepurchasing to make sure you like the app ***USER INTERFACEThe main screen provides 4 buttons:•Location - Press this button to add or select thepredictiongeneration location•Two Line Elements (TLE) - Press this button to download TLEs•Generate Prediction - Press this button to start thepredictiongeneration•View Prediction - Press this button to view the prediction maportext fileThe options menu provides the following:•Locations - Press to add, select, edit or deletesavedlocations•Predictions - Press to view, share or delete savedpredictionmaps•Settings - Press to set user preferences•DEM Files - Press to list or delete the downloaded DEM Data•Help - Press to display this help page•About - Press to display application version, creditsandlinksLOCATIONSAdd a named observing location by clicking the "Add Location"buttonaccessible from the locations screen.The location coordinates can be entered in any ofthreemethods:•Manually - Enter latitude, longitude and elevation in thetextboxes. Positive values represent North and East, negativevaluesSouth and West. Elevation can be entered in meters or feetabovesea level depending on the current prediction units setting.As thecoordinates are typed, the map pans to the location. Pressthesearch button to search for a location.•Map Input - Use the map to zoom and pan to a location. PressingtheSet button sets the location name, coordinates and elevation inthetext boxes. The elevation of the current coordinates isretrievedusing the specified elevation data source setting. Switchbetweenmap and satellite modes by toggling the Map/Satbutton.•GPS - By pressing the GPS button, the application uses GPStoobtain location coordinates and elevation.Use the locations page accessible from the options menu to editanddelete saved locations.GENERATING PREDICTIONSOnce a location has been entered and TLE have been downloaded,pressthe "Generate Prediction" button to begin predictiongeneration. Theprogress bar gives an indication of how long itwill take tocomplete the process. Depending on your CPU speed, itcan take a fewminutes to generate the predictions. Pressing thecancel button willcancel the prediction.VIEWING PREDICTIONSOnce the prediction generation is complete, the prediction maportext file can be viewed. Pressing the View Prediction buttonbringsup the previously generated prediction map. The text buttonwithinthe map view displays the prediction text. The Map/Satbuttonswitches between Map mode and Satellite mode.Within the map view press the Google Earth button to view the mapinGoogle Earth.

ISS Research Explorer
Explore the diverse ecosystem ofexperimentsbeing researched on the International Space Station –bothcompleted and ongoing. Investigate the results and benefits ofmanyof the experiments and find out why performing research inamicrogravity environment is so important. The SpaceStationResearch Explorer provides current information on ISSexperiments,facilities and research results through video, photos,interactivemedia, and in-depth descriptions.The Experiments section provides access to the six mainexperimentcategories and their subcategories. Experiments aredepicted asdots within the category system and the stems connectingthe dotsto the system depict the length of time the experimentspent onorbit. Users can drill down to see specific experimentswithin thecategories and subcategories or search for a specificexperiment orsubject using the search option. Experimentdescriptions consist oflinks, images, and publications ifavailable. The Experimentssection can be further narrowed byselecting a specific expeditionand sponsor by using the dials atthe top right of the screenThe Facilities section provides an interior view of three ofthestation modules; Columbus, Kibo, and Destiny, and an exteriorviewof seven external facilities; ELC1-4, Columbus-EPF, JEM-EF andAMS.The module interiors can be navigated by dragging up and downtosee different sides of the module and left and right to viewanyracks not shown on the screen. Tapping a rack gives abriefdescription of the rack and an experiment description ifavailable.For the external facilities, the platform is shown andcan berotated and zoomed. Payloads on the external racks arelabeled andthe labels can be selected for more information.The Benefits section provides information on Human Health,EconomicDevelopment, Innovative Technology, Earth Benefits andGlobaleducation. Selecting a section allows the benefits tobeinvestigated further.The Media section provides access to two tabs: Podcasts, andVideos.Podcasts contains links to NASA ScienceCasts and Videoscontainslinks to Science related videos.The last section contains links to other Space stationresearchsites and NASA applications
