Space news and events aggregator app

In summary, a user named PF shared a small application called Luna that aggregates news and events in the space industry. The app also features launch schedules, tracking for the space station, and more. It is currently only available on the Play Store and aims to be a one-stop shop for space-related news. The app is still in its early version but has some cool features such as a map of upcoming space launches and live video from the space station. PF is open to reviews and feedback and unfortunately, there is no version for iOS. The post was approved by Greg Bernhardt.

Hello PF,

I built a small application which I figured some users here may be interested in. The app aggregates news and events in the space industry, allows you to view launch schedules, track the space station, and more.

It's called Luna and an early version is available on the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=orbyt.spacehub

The app aims to be a one stop shop for news on space related events. It's still an early version, but has a few cool features, such as map where space launches are going to occur, live video from the space station, twitter feeds from astronauts on the space station, and other additional features.

Please check it out. Your reviews and feedback are appreciated. If you have questions, let me know.

Thanks to Greg Bernhardt for approving this post.
