Thought with the upcoming marathon, this might be of interest.

The organization which created the app for the Messier Marathon has done
something very special for us. Everyone gets the app for free from now till the
end of this week-end. The corrected US version came out a few hours ago. The
new 1.1 version has the fixes plus the new âLocalizeâ function which allows
you to point your device to the sky for every object and see where it is
located.
The application Messier Marathon for iPhones, iPads and iPod Touch has just
been published on the Apple Store and should be of interest to amateur
astronomers who want to take part in the March Marathon or just enjoy the
Messier objects any night of the year. The application can be found at
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/messier-marathon/id594617818?mt=8
The application includes photos, maps, trajectory plots, information on the 110
Messier objects as well as management of the status of the observation. A sky
map with all currently visible Messier objects and a red mode is also included.
For those who want to do a marathon, it calculates visible Messier objects for
any night of the year and includes the March marathon order.
You can sort objects by elevation, magnitude, constellation or number and
filter by availability and object type. (For a Nebula only evening). In
addition, a new feature to point you to the correct position in the sky will be
available shortly for all objects.
This application is designed for efficiency, simplicity of use and speed during
observation, not requiring menus or keyboards input to select objects in order
to allow you to concentrate on the observation. Not to mention that in the case
of the Marathon, you do not want to waste time fiddling with commands.
Most of the photos provided were done by an amateur astronomer in our club. The
first article on the application will come out this month in the AstronomieÂ
magazine of France.
Of course, we would be pleased for any feedback or suggestions and hope the
application will help you enjoy the Messier objects any night of the year as
well as during the marathon.
Thanks,
Steven Suckow
