Here i've tried to launch NASA App on my Android Samsung Galaxy Fit GT-S5670:

Missions Home Screen

The missions home screen shows all of the current NASA missions in a table view. Any item in the list can be selected, which opens up detailed information about the mission. Clicking the filter icon in the left corner of the missions panel, allows the user to turn on or off the groups of missions they would like to see or have hidden.

Selecting a mission, opens a second detailed view which allows the user to view the mission description, see mission specific images and videos, email the mission URL to someone, view a launch countdown clock and view an orbit tracking screen (if the spacecraft is in orbit around the Earth) for some missions.

Mission Orbit Tracking Screen

The mission orbit tracking screen (available for some missions that are in orbit around the Earth, like Landsat on this case), shows the current orbit position of a selected spacecraft. Visible passes for devices home location and through search for location function can also be accessed from this screen by click orbiter

 
 
Images Home Screen

There are three image gallery options - NASA Image of the Day, Astronomy Picture of the Day and the NASAimages.org collection. Users can toggle between the three sources from the main springboard home screen or from the popup menu at the bottom of each collection. The images are first displayed in thumbnail format. Tapping on an image thumbnail, will zoom in on that image.

When a thumbnail is selected, a scrolling view is presented, with a higher-resolution image, formatted to fit the screen while displayed in its original aspect ratio. The user can scroll through the current image set by swiping across the screen and also rotate the Android device to display an image in landscape format. Tapping on the image, will display information about the image and let the user mark it as one of their favorite images. Users can also place a bookmark on an image to easily get back to that place in the collection.

Videos Home Screen

The video home screen of the application allows the user to browse, select and watch NASA videos. Users can also do a keyword search for a video and choose to narrow or widen the scope of videos feeds.
