HourWorld Lite presents a small world map with sun and moon in a moving pattern of day, twilight, and night. Daylight blends into twilight and darkness with geometric accuracy. A variety of screens show times around the world, sunrise and sunset times, sun and moon calendars past and future, and even a sundial.
Our Review: HourWorld is a beautiful representation of the earth shown as a flat 2D map. Using HourWorld allows you to find out a whole host of time-related information about cities all around the world. You can determine the sun/moon rise/set times and watch an animated display of the suns' shadow across the earth. HourWorld has practical purposes - you can graphically determine whether it is acceptable to ring a friend in another part of the world and what the best times to use your telescope are.
