Definitions

• the method further comprises the steps of, as the user terminal is relocated by a user, and in real time, determining further user terminal parameters and displaying further celestial nodes and message information associated with said further nodes responsive to said further parameters.
• the method further comprises serving the personal message as an instant message.
• Certain embodiments of the present invention may provide the advantage that message information which is associated with pre-transmitted wireless signals transmitted to one or more celestial nodes is provided at a display of a user terminal. This may enable users to observe celestial nodes which may be points in the sky where pre-transmitted messages have so far travelled to.
• the message information may include information associated with a selectable target node such as a planet or star.
• the message information may include a logo and/or personal message and/or relevant text from a person or organisation or company associated with the pre-transmitted wireless signal.
• Users of the terminal may have an ability to select the message information which is provided by locating the user terminal physically in a particular direction or by selecting a displayed region of outer space via a keyboard or via a mouse or other indicating mechanism etc.
• connection 125 is illustrated as a direct connection but the information can of course be provided via any suitable connection paths.
• Figure 5 illustrates a schematic diagram of system parts of a mobile terminal in the form of a smartphone 175. More particularly, the smartphone 1 75 includes a microprocessor 500 which co-ordinates control of the various component parts.
• a user interface (Ul) includes a display 505 and/or keyboard 510.
• the microprocessor 500 also controls an RF transceiver 520 which transmits wireless signals from an antenna 525 and receives wireless signals via the antenna 525.
• An analogue to digital converter 530 provides signals to a speaker 535.
• the analogue to digital converter 530 also receives signals from a microphone 540.
• certain embodiments of the present invention may be used to serve messages to a terminal user when a user selects a region where a wireless signal has been transmitted.
• the messages delivered to the terminal may be SMS or MMS messages or the like.
• the messages are instant messages.
