Interesting, educational little app!

Granted, this doesnt have the same immediate utility as a weather app -- but its great when youre trying to wrap your head around the bigger climate-type issues of the world. Some features are oddly chosen (gravity field -- doubt it changes much; sea surface temperatures -- odd that this is missing), but this is a great start. Any chance of an iPad-formatted version?

@Milvetretired -- yes, the Earth has a gravity field, its a little lumpy because its a function of the distribution of mass within the planet. Kind of neat to display, but (if Im not mistaken) only changes on geological time scales.
