Question by : Is there a GPS car navigator system that has the ability to show star and planet maps?
I have an app on my android that allows you to point it to the sky and tell you what stars are behind the phone. Is there a car friendly GPS system that could do this? … other than a smartphone. My parents are going into the mountains so they want it for directions there and for a star guide when they get there. Got it?
