Star Walk Month of Astronomy
Having developed two of the most popular astronomy apps out there, which we are VERY proud of, we have learned a lot of interesting and inspiring facts about the stars. Star Walk and Solar Walk were born thanks to an astronomy enthusiast who wanted to develop astronomy apps that would implement all technical innovations of iPhone platform. It is safe to say that now Vito Technology is united not only as a company but also by a common hobby – we are all amateur astronomers. And we wish you would become one too!
That is why we decided to do something to engage our customers into a little astronomy adventure, which would be interesting for everyone regardless their age or occupation.
One of the many things we have learned is that summer is the best time for stargazing. What can be better than a summer night out – romantic dating, hiking, long evenings by a campfire. All these can be accompanied with stargazing. July is very rich in events astro-wise. For example, meteor showers and impressive views on the planets.
So we suggest that you join us and be the part of Star Walk Month of Astronomy. We are planning to hold a couple of fun educative activities. Of course we have some free stuff to offer:
iPod Touch 8GB;
$20, $15, $10 iTunes cards;
10 Star Walk and Solar Walk T-shirts
10 FREE Promo codes for our astronomy apps
