Hi, I’m Jerry Colen of NASA Ames Research Center.

2
00:00:03,830 --> 00:00:08,080
In the next couple minutes, I’d like to give you a demo of the new NASA App HD.

3
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:14,090
Our goal with the first version of the NASA app was to deliver mission information,

4
00:00:14,110 --> 00:00:21,050
images, videos, and news updates in the best possible way for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

5
00:00:24,630 --> 00:00:30,580
We’ve updated and enhanced the application to take advantage of the iPad’s larger screen size.

6
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,990
Now let’s take a look.

7
00:00:33,010 --> 00:00:36,740
Here’s the new home screen with three main navigation areas.

8
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,030
First, let’s try the icons on the top of screen.

9
00:00:41,050 --> 00:00:49,280
Touch the first icon to link to NASA news topics, organized by subjects.

10
00:00:49,300 --> 00:00:57,730
The second icon activates a map of all the NASA Centers, with links to their web pages and visitor centers.

11
00:00:57,750 --> 00:01:03,170
You can check an updated NASA launch schedule with the third icon.

12
00:01:03,190 --> 00:01:07,900
One touch on the last icon lets you browse current NASA missions.

13
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:13,720
Let’s look at the International Space Station. You can make this map fill the screen.

14
00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:19,880
So let’s zoom in to see the live ground track of the ISS.

15
00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:33,050
The map can also use our current home location to show us the next time the ISS will be visible as it passes overhead.

16
00:01:33,070 --> 00:01:38,830
We can easily share this information with our friends via Twitter, Facebook or email.

17
00:01:38,850 --> 00:01:45,530
The NASA app now has a new graphical user interface that makes it easy to explore the solar system and the universe.

18
00:01:45,550 --> 00:01:51,610
All of the images are active and with just a touch we can see a wealth of information about the object.

19
00:01:51,630 --> 00:01:59,500
Lots of quick-view facts to the left and plenty of in-depth descriptions, images and links to NASA missions.

20
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:06,220
To access images, video and TV, let’s look at the icons at the bottom of the screen.

21
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:11,450
One of the things I like best is the ability to display the NASA images in higher resolution.

22
00:02:11,470 --> 00:02:19,630
Here’s an example of the current NASA image of the day, and some previous images.

23
00:02:19,650 --> 00:02:24,380
Click to bring up a caption.

24
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:31,230
You can also view thumbnails or a calendar view…or go back to where you started.

25
00:02:31,250 --> 00:02:39,710
Another great feature is the ability to watch a live stream of NASA TV.

26
00:02:39,730 --> 00:02:48,990
You’ll also find a large gallery of on-demand NASA videos.

27
00:02:49,010 --> 00:02:52,710
Follow NASA with Tweets from all across the Agency.

28
00:02:52,730 --> 00:03:01,340
You can share these on Facebook or re-Tweet with your Twitter account.

29
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:08,490
There’s also a featured content section. In this example, it’s a collection of stories about women in space.
