Heavens-Above 1.73 archive notes
Heavens-Above 1.73 is a location-aware skywatching tool for planning satellite observations from an Android phone. After a GPS fix or manual place entry, users can move from nightly event lists to a circular live chart, inspect the ISS and radio-satellite sections, search a catalog, and open orbit or information views for a chosen object. A tracker-style chart connects the forecast to the direction above the observer, while local calculations keep routine predictions on the device and occasional connectivity refreshes the data. This release also explains its location use at setup; the free edition may display advertising, and the Pro edition adds ad removal plus Doppler-shifted radio frequencies. It declares Android 4.1 or newer.
Plan satellite passes from a chosen location
Use GPS or a manual place entry to turn the observing location into a schedule of satellite opportunities. The workflow is useful when you want to know when the ISS or another object may appear before stepping outside.
Explore the sky with a live chart
The circular chart connects planets, constellations, and satellite positions with Sky Chart, Orbit, and Info views. Time controls, zooming, and tracker guidance help turn a forecast into an understandable direction in the real sky.
Follow ISS and radio-satellite details
Dedicated ISS and radio-satellite areas keep familiar targets easy to reach, with pass, orbit, and technical details for deeper observation. The Pro edition can remove adverts and apply Doppler-shifted radio frequencies for radio-focused use.
