Asteroids from Outer Space!

    Hi all,

    I'm currently completing a MSc in Computer science, and we developed an Android app for a class project.
    We'd love to get some feedback from users, so we'd really appreciate it if you downloaded it and pop a review on Google Play, or give me some feedback here.

    The app uses data retrieved by the NASA Near Earth Object (NEO) program, and displays information on comets and asteroids that pass within Earth's neighborhood. We decided to have a bit of fun with the name, design and notifications.

    Here's the link: Asteroids from Outer Space

    Thanks :D!!

    Paula

    Cool idea for an app. Would be great if there could be a diagram or something showing just how near earth the asteroid would be passing.

    Great idea, we'll have a look at implementing something like that, thanks!

    What would be nice is a where is it now option when you are looking at doomsday watch where it shows its current location in relation to our solar system.

    Be cool to follow it as it passes Jupiter say.
