Space Finger

The plastic finger is mounted on a stepper-motor driven gimbal. Type the name of the astronomical object into the app, and the gimbal swivels the finger to point at it.

'Moon'- it points at the moon, even if it is below the horizon. 'Mercury' etc, obviously. 'ISS' - the space station.

       I was hoping it would be much much larger, like a huge visible satellite, and the third digit. That would tell those Martians exactly what we think of them.
