But there's more - this app also features a realtime 3D view ofEarth's aurora, cloud-cover, and sunlight. Watch northern andsouthern lights, storms, and sunshine move across our planet - allin the palm of your hand!

The application uses data from NASA STEREO, SDO, and ACEspacecraft - downloaded from outer space to your phone. SolarisAlpha alerts you with a ringtone when new solar flares aredetected, geomagnetic storm level increases, interplanetarymagnetic field turns south, or when the aurora may be visible fromyour phone's location.

Please email me with suggested new features - many thanks to allof those who have already helped me improve Solaris Alpha!

The app's storm/aurora/flare detector automatically starts whenyour phone boots, and you will receive alerts whether or notSolarisAlpha is running (uncheck "Start detector at boot" fromSolaris' "Settings" menu to disable auto-start on boot). PLEASENOTE: Android does NOT support start-on-boot of apps stored on theSD card, so you must install SolarisAlpha on your phone to enablethis feature.
