This is the app that ISS uses to take photos of the Earth

We frequently see astronauts of the International Space Station sharing incredible images of Earth, which we can call an advantage of orbiting our planet various times in a day and enjoying privileged scenery in the workplace. One of those astronauts, Matthias Maurer is among the most popular astronauts on social media, especially because of aerial sceneries of the Earth that he shares. In one of his posts, Maurer shared his formula for taking great photos that made him famous on the platform, along with revealing the mobile application that they use in space for this goal. 'To find out where we are above Earth & not miss any interesting photo opportunities, @Space_Station astronauts use an app called GoISSwatch & @NASA's 'World Map' programme,' Maurer said in his Twitter post. 'These also show weather conditions & Earth observation targets for the perfect.' The application GoISSWatch can be downloaded for free for iPhone and iPad and it shows to the astronauts the anticipated route of the ISS while it orbits the Earth. But it is also possible for people in Earth to use this same application to track the movement of the space station in real-time. The app also informs you regarding when the ISS will pass from the place where you are, allowing you to observe the orbital satellite. It should also be noted that no special equipment is needed for this and that it is enough for the sky to be clear. GoISSWatch also offers a notification system for the related astronaut to be able to get ready and know beforehand when the station will go by his/her city. Android users, on the other hand, can also download a similar app called ISS Detector.
