Cool Science App for IPhone

There is a great Earth Science App for IPhones dealing with Earthquakes. It is FREE and called Quake Zone, and has detailed information on earthquakes world wide. It gives details on time, epicenter, magnitude and depth. It is pretty cool, especially considering the number of recent quakes we have had in the valley this summer.

ENJOY!
