Just 3 Steps to Stunning Cosmic Images
Connect, choose a target, and capture. The app-driven workflow keeps things straightforward while the telescope handles the technical work in the background.
4K Dual-Lens
Wide View. See It All
A dual-lens system with wide-angle and telephoto cameras lets Seestar S30 Pro switch seamlessly between big, dramatic scenes and detailed deep-sky targets. Both cameras capture native 4K resolution at 1x.
Four Imaging Modes
Built for Astrophotography
Dedicated modes optimise capture for different subjects, including deep-sky imaging, wide Milky Way scenes, Solar System targets, and scenery.
One-tap Milky Way and Star Trails
Create wide-field Milky Way shots and star trails with a simplified workflow. The telescope manages capture and processing so you can focus on the result.
8K Milky Way Stitching - One-Click Mosaic
Built-in Milky Way stitching can automatically create horizontal or vertical mosaics to expand the field of view, while preserving ultra-high-resolution detail.
Freeze the ground, Two Worlds in Perfect Focus
Lock the landscape and let the sky do the moving. This mode is designed to keep the Milky Way sharp and reduce unwanted foreground movement, helping create clean, natural wide-field results.
Intelligent Constellation Recognition
Read the Stars with One Tap
Seestar can identify and label constellations in view, helping you understand what you are looking at and making it easier to jump between sky regions using app-based GOTO control.
Vast Celestial Targets
Stargazing Simplified
Choose a target in the app and the telescope automatically locates, tracks, and captures. This makes it easy to explore deep-sky objects without the usual learning curve.
One-Tap Post-Processing, Effortless Imaging
With a simple tap, Seestar can apply noise reduction and background balancing to help deliver cleaner, more natural-looking results while preserving fine celestial detail.
DSO Mosaic Stitching
Stunning 8K Image
For larger deep-sky targets, mosaic capture can follow a planned grid and stitch the result automatically, pushing beyond the limits of a single frame.
Plan mode
Plan it. Sleep on it.
Schedule your session in advance and let Seestar handle locating, tracking, capturing, and refining your targets. Great for overnight imaging when you do not want to stay up.
Equatorial Mode
Equatorial Mode is designed to counter Earth’s rotation for steadier tracking and longer exposures. Additional accessories are required.

More sky. In your hands.
A dual-camera smart telescope with 737mm of reach, a Sony STARVIS 2 sensor, and a full astrophotography studio built into the app. From deep-sky nebulae to birds in flight, it does it all from a 1.3kg body.
Galaxies and nebulae, clearly within reach.
The 737mm telephoto and STARVIS 2 sensor pull faint deep-sky targets out of the dark. Andromeda, the Orion Nebula, the Veil, the Pleiades. Point, capture, and the DWARF 3 stacks frame after frame into a clean, detailed image.
More optics, more sensor, more battery. The smart telescope, fully grown.
Tap your phone. Start shooting.
NFC one-touch pairing connects your phone in seconds. Pick a target from the star chart or point your phone at the sky, and the DWARF 3 finds it and locks on. No alignment ritual first.
It locates and tracks for you.
Choose an object and the DWARF 3 slews to it, focuses, and tracks it as Earth turns. A field-rotation-correction algorithm keeps stars round through the whole session, so framing never drifts.
60-second exposures, four times longer.
On a polar-aligned tripod, EQ mode eliminates field rotation and unlocks exposures up to four times longer. More light per frame means richer detail in faint nebulae and galaxies.
A filter for every sky.
Switch between VIS for daytime, an astro filter for deep space, and a dual-narrowband Hα / O III filter that cuts city light pollution. A magnetic solar filter is included for safe imaging of the Sun.
A studio inside the app.
One-click optimisation, noise reduction, star calibration, and even star removal run on your phone. No laptop and no expensive software needed to turn raw frames into a share-ready image.
A whole observatory at 1.3kg.
Dictionary-sized and around 1.3kg, the DWARF 3 packs into its included carry bag and travels anywhere. Backyard, campsite, or a dark-sky weekend, it is ready when the sky is.
Two lenses. Sky and landscape.
A 6-element apochromatic telephoto reaches 737mm equivalent for deep-sky and close detail. A wide-angle lens frames the Milky Way, panoramas, and fast-moving subjects. Every mode now works on both lenses, and you switch between them with one tap.
Look up. Tap once. Capture it.
From the Moon to the far edges of deep space, the DWARF 3 turns a clear night into a finished photograph.
Built to see in the dark.
The 8.3-megapixel STARVIS 2 sensor reaches 83% quantum efficiency with just 0.6e− read noise and 12-bit output. It gathers more faint light with less noise, so nebulae come through layered and smooth rather than grainy.
Set it tonight. Sleep through it.
Plan a target and start time in advance and the DWARF 3 begins on its own. No staying up all night, and no missing a narrow window when the object is highest.
Stack across nights for depth.
Combine results from different sessions into one cleaner, higher-resolution image. A faint target keeps improving across many nights, far beyond what a single evening can gather.
Four times the frame.
A 2×2 stitching mode expands a single field to four times its area. Rotate and zoom to compose freely and capture a large nebula complete, edge to edge, in one panorama.
Tune the colour in-app.
Built-in curve grading adjusts the RGB channels individually to rebalance colour and restore the true tones of stars and nebulae. Fine control without leaving your phone.
Add your watermark, then share.
Apply a personal watermark before posting so a finished shot is unmistakably yours. From capture to a share-ready image without ever opening a computer.
Export RAW for full control.
Save in JPG and PNG for quick sharing, or FITS and TIFF for serious post-processing in Siril or PixInsight. The DWARF 3 suits beginners and experienced imagers alike.
Not just for the night.
An AI neural-processing unit recognises and tracks wildlife automatically, with continuous autofocus that holds a moving bird sharp. If it takes off, the dual-camera system quickly repositions and stays with it.
One device, every subject.
Stitch the whole scene.
AI stitching blends many frames into a seamless gigapixel panorama with no visible joins. An ultra-wide field with massive detail, so you can zoom right in and it stays sharp.
Safe solar, crisp lunar.
The included magnetic solar filter lets you image the Sun safely, from sunspots to eclipses. Turn to the Moon for sharp, detailed craters along the terminator on any clear night.
Wide-field nightscapes.
Point at the Milky Way for one-click capture with automatic foreground separation and stacking. Switch off tracking for star-trail mode that blends the landscape with the sky's turning arcs.
Daily targets, picked for you.
The app recommends what is worth shooting each night based on your sky. Tap a suggestion and go straight from choosing a target to capturing it, with no guesswork.

RASA Optical Technology: Unleashing the Power of Light
At the heart of Celestron Origin Mark II lies the patented Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph (RASA)—a landmark advancement in optics. In the RASA design, the imaging sensor lies at the front of the telescope tube, not the back, creating an ultra-fast f/2.2 system with an extraordinarily wide field of view while providing sharp images to the edge. Since it launched in 2014, RASA technology has become the go-to choice for space surveillance and satellite tracking. National defense contractors, professional research astronomers, and governments trust RASA to detect tiny pieces of debris and space junk, keeping our vital communications satellites safe in orbit. For Origin, Celestron’s optical engineers developed a brand-new 6” RASA with all the same capabilities of an observatory-grade instrument in a grab-and-go package.
Thanks to RASA, Celestron Origin Mark II is in a class of its own, far outperforming other telescope designs. RASA simply delivers more photons in less time than a smaller and slower Newtonian reflector, refractor, or other entry-level telescope tube. RASA’s unique combination of speed, aperture, and performance ensures unparalleled image detail, even during short exposure times.
Now Equipped with the Celestron Origin 678C Camera
Celestron Origin Mark II now comes equipped with the Origin 678C Camera—a next-generation upgrade featuring Sony’s latest Starvis 2 CMOS technology. With 8.4 megapixels, ultra-fine 2.0 μm² pixels, and a modern 16:9 aspect ratio, this advanced sensor delivers higher resolution and increased sensitivity.
Precision-matched to Origin’s fast f/2.2 RASA optics, the 678C Camera captures fine structure in galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. Whether you're new to astrophotography or an experienced imager, you’ll enjoy clean, crisp results—ready to stack, share, or admire on your device in near-real time.
Turning Every Backyard Observer into an Astroimager
Celestron Origin Mark II introduces a paradigm shift in astrophotography with its built-in AI algorithms. As the telescope captures data, these intelligent algorithms automatically process every frame in real time. It’s important to note that the AI imaging processing in the Origin app is not generative AI. It does not colorize or add to your image data in any way. It simply sharpens and enhances your images using the same processing techniques an advanced astroimager would use.
The images you create with Celestron Origin Mark II are 100 percent your own data, optimized to look its best. The technology works in real-time on your live-stacked images and is also applied to the final stacked master. The result is a breathtaking display of celestial objects, rich with colour and detail beyond what the human eye could perceive in an eyepiece. And you can always adjust the images yourself using the manual controls. Thanks to the Celestron Origin Mark II, astroimaging is now accessible to enthusiasts of all skill levels, including those who have never used a telescope before.
A Universe at Your Fingertips: StarSense Technology & the Origin App
Setting up Celestron Origin Mark II is a snap, thanks to its automated initialization process powered by StarSense technology. Place Origin outside, turn it on, and connect to the app. Then, you can choose to remain with your telescope or head indoors. In less than two minutes, Origin focuses itself, scans the night sky, autonomously aligns itself by matching star patterns overhead to its internal database, and notifies you that it’s ready to begin your astronomical adventure.
The Celestron Origin Powered by SkySafari™ app, developed in collaboration with Simulation Curriculum offers an intuitive planetarium interface that simplifies navigation through the night sky. Using the planetarium view, hold your device up to the sky to look around using “compass mode”, and tap on any object you want to see (the best ones are highlighted). Or try the Tonight’s Best list, where Origin displays all the most impressive galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, and more—based on your precise location and observing time. Forget about consulting a star chart or planning ahead; Origin is ready to show you the universe whenever you are.

Google Play Download
Once you’ve chosen a target, Celestron Origin Mark II centers it precisely in the field of view. Switch to the camera view and press Start Imaging to begin capturing 10-second exposures. It’s that easy! You see the results come through in real-time as the target takes on more and more detail. As the Celestron Origin Mark II works, it continually tracks the sky and adjusts its built-in dew prevention system to keep your images razor-sharp. Using the Celestron Origin app, you can easily adjust image settings — such as brightness, contrast, and colour saturation — to bring out different details before saving or sharing with family and friends. As of 2025, the Celestron Origin Mark II can adjust the Stretch Strength in your final stacked master to tease out subtle details in faint nebulae and galaxies.
A Shared Cosmic Experience
Gone are the days of waiting in line to peer into an eyepiece. Celestron Origin Mark II fosters a sense of community as you share the awe-inspiring experience of exploring the night sky together. Whether your friends and family are in the same room or gathered outside, multiple people can connect to Celestron Origin, and stream the view with their own devices. Additionally, Celestron Origin Mark II allows you to cast the live feed to your smart TV or instantly save and share your astroimages, creating memorable moments beyond the confines of your backyard.
Ready for More? Advanced Features
As you grow in the hobby alongside Celestron Origin Mark II, it will continue to support you with more advanced features and functionality. For example, Origin has a built-in filter drawer that accepts standard 1.25” and 2” format filters. This allows you to install optional filters, which can be especially useful in imaging nebulae in light-polluted environments like the typical suburban backyard. For imaging broadband objects like galaxies and star clusters or objects from dark skies, remove the filter for more light-throughput and brighter images. Experiment with removable and interchangeable filters for results you can’t achieve with other systems’ fixed filters.
If you would like to try advanced image processing, Celestron Origin Mark II again has you covered. It can automatically save all your raw images, which you can retrieve by plugging in a USB thumb drive or by connecting to Origin’s built-in WiFi network to download the files to your computer wirelessly. Then, import them into your favorite software for manual editing and stacking.
And how about putting Origin to work for you while you sleep? That’s no problem with the scheduled observations feature. Just tell the app which objects you want to capture. You’ll wake up to an array of spectacular images.
Expand Your Astroimaging Possibilities with Celestron Origin
Celestron Origin Mark II delivers stunning deep-sky images right out of the box. But for experienced astrophotographers interested in experimenting with longer manual exposure times, there’s now an exciting new way to fine-tune performance: equatorial wedge mode, enabled by the Wedge for NexStar Evolution and the optional StarSense Autoguider.
By aligning Celestron Origin Mark II with Earth’s rotational axis, the wedge eliminates field rotation during tracking. This enables longer sub-exposures and allows imaging near or at zenith—ideal for capturing fainter details with greater clarity, since zenith (straight up) is generally the darkest part of the night sky. As with any equatorial setup, polar alignment is required before use, but the app will take you through an automated routine that makes it easy.
For exposure times beyond 30 seconds, we recommend pairing the wedge with the StarSense Autoguider. While Celestron Origin Mark II excels at short exposures (10–15 seconds), automatically rejecting frames with minor tracking errors, the Autoguider boosts tracking precision for longer manual exposures—reducing rejected frames and maximizing image quality. Together, the equatorial wedge and StarSense Autoguider offer a powerful toolkit for advanced users pursuing specialized longer-exposure imaging.
Gain a New Perspective Here on Earth
In addition to revealing distant worlds, Celestron Origin Mark II can also capture incredible views of land-based objects on Earth, day or night. During the day, you can manually slew to capture landscapes and scenery. At night, Origin’s fast optics and sensitive camera allow you to see things in very dim ambient conditions for almost night-vision-like performance. Look around your yard or campsite at night to see what you may be missing!
Take Your Astroimaging Studio Anywhere
Celestron Origin Mark II is a portable system that doesn’t require external WiFi or 5G networks, so you can easily take it to remote dark skies in any car. Perfect for exploring our southern skies from out in the bush!
The optical tube, mount, and tripod all easily assemble and disassemble without tools. Each component weighs less than 16 lb. Optional carry cases are also available.

Future Upgrades
When you invest in Origin, you can count on Celestron’s engineers as your long-term partners in astronomy. Our technical teams are hard at work developing even more upgrades and enhancements for your Origin. For example, we provide access to Origin’s camera for potential future upgrades as technology improves. We’re also developing all-new functionality for your Origin and the Origin app.
Here’s a sneak preview of what we’ll be rolling out in the coming months:
Mosaic Mode:- Capture wider fields of view by stitching multiple images together.
A:
That’s correct. Because the human eye is less efficient than CMOS sensors at low light levels, we are removing it from the equation. Origin’s sensor “sees” more photons in less time than your eye could and then delivers the images it captures to your phone or tablet. The result is “almost real-time” visual observing without an eyepiece. With Origin, you see much more detail in faint, deep-sky objects than you would through the eyepiece of a much larger telescope under dark skies.

12.5 MP detail. Five-minute setup.
The Vaonis Vespera Pro 2 smart telescope captures high-resolution deep-sky images without a full astrophotography rig. The Sony IMX 676 sensor, CovalENS mosaics and automatic multi-night capture do the repetitive work, while manual controls and 16-bit files keep experienced imagers in command.
The highest native resolution Vaonis puts in a smart telescope. Automation gets you observing. 16-bit files let you keep going.
12.5 MP in a square 1:1 sensor.
The 3536×3536 colour sensor records a useful square field with 2μm pixels and a native image scale of 1.6 arcsec/pixel. Fine sampling brings out smaller structures in nebulae, clusters and galaxies without turning the telescope into a cable-heavy imaging rig.
50 MP mosaics, assembled automatically.
Choose a wider composition and CovalENS plans, captures and combines the panels for you. The model product page specifies a maximum 4.18°×2.45° field, so broad nebula complexes and galaxy groups can fit without sacrificing the native pixel scale.
Resume the same mosaic tomorrow night.
Framing, gain, exposure, stacking progress and mosaic progress are retained between sessions. Open the project, tap Resume and add more integration time without rebuilding the sequence by hand.
16-bit FITS when the automatic result is not enough.
Set exposure, gain and framing manually, capture calibration data and export individual FITS frames or a 16-bit TIFF pre-stack. Process in PixInsight, Siril or the software you already know.
50 mm f/4.9 quadruplet with S-FPL52 glass.
The redesigned three-group apochromatic system and refined field corrector send a flatter, cleaner field to the sensor. Internal optical baffles reduce direct stray light, while a CLS filter remains the right tool for general urban skyglow.
Humidity sensing turns anti-fog on for you.
Temperature and humidity monitoring activates the integrated anti-fog system when conditions demand it. That removes one more cable and one more setting from long coastal or cold inland sessions.
11 hours of battery, 225 GB of headroom.
Run from dusk to dawn without a separate field battery in normal conditions. Thirty multi-night slots and generous internal storage keep ambitious captures organised, with USB-C transfer available when you are ready to process.
One master dark, cleaner data across sessions.
BalENS balances weaker and brighter signals while flattening the sky background in real time. Automatic dark calibration reduces sensor noise without adding a manual calibration routine to every night.
One button, one app, about five minutes.
Wake the telescope, connect in Singularity and choose a target from the catalogue. Initialisation, pointing, focusing, tracking and live stacking are handled automatically.
Schedule a sequence, then let the telescope run.
Plan My Night carries out a programmed observing sequence without constant supervision. It works with Mosaic Mode and Multi-Night Capture, so a long project does not have to occupy your whole evening.
Refine contrast, colour and noise in the app.
SkyColor Studio offers approachable edits for sky background, denoise, colour, star balance and palettes. Export the result there, or move into a full 16-bit desktop workflow when you want deeper control.
Four hours on M17 with a dual-band filter.
Vaonis captured the Omega Nebula under Bortle 4 skies. The image shows the kind of wide, detailed emission-nebula work the 12.5 MP square sensor and f/4.9 optics are designed to tackle.
5 kg, 48 cm tall, ready for a shared night.
The Vaonis Vespera Pro 2 smart telescope folds to 48×20×9 cm and travels with a carbon-fibre tripod, dedicated tripod bag and protective flycase. Its app-controlled, beginner-friendly setup makes shared astronomy easy, while manual capture options leave room to grow.
Four hours on M27 at 1.6 arcsec per pixel.

Eleven hours. One button. The deep sky.
Set up in five minutes, press one button, and photograph nebulae on your very first night, no experience needed. A new flat-field apochromatic quadruplet, an all-night battery and fully automatic capture mean Vespera 3 captures more, keeps everything, and asks nothing of you.
“The most affordable premium smart telescope.” Vaonis, on the Vespera 3.
A flat-field apochromatic quadruplet.
The new three-group optical design eliminates chromatic aberration and field curvature across the entire frame. Stars stay tight from centre to edge, with improved response in the blue and red ends of the spectrum for stronger colour contrast.
Baffled against stray light.
Precision-engineered optical baffles stop streetlights and porch lights before they reach the sensor. The result is more contrast and deeper targets, even from a suburban backyard.
11 hours on a charge.
Vaonis rates it the longest battery life of any smart telescope, enough to run from dusk to dawn without a power bank. Extend it further over USB-C if a marathon session demands it.
115 GB. Nothing gets lost.
Every frame from every session is saved and organised onboard, with 16-bit FITS and pre-stacked TIFF files ready for transfer. USB-C moves a full night of data at 30 MB/s.
24-megapixel mosaics.
Mosaic mode stitches frames automatically up to 24 MP, expanding the view to 4.33° × 2.43° without giving up resolution. Entire nebulae, galaxies and clusters fit in a single capture.
Sensor-driven dew defence.
An integrated humidity and temperature sensor activates the anti-fog system automatically, tuned to preserve battery. The optics stay clear through damp Australian nights without you touching a thing.
The Rosette Nebula. 3.5 hours. Bortle 4.
Captured with the Vespera 3 and dual band filter, stacked automatically onboard. No guiding, no manual alignment, no post-processing marathon. All from a scope that packs into carry-on luggage.
Frame fields no single shot can cover.
CovalENS builds mosaics up to 24 MP while you watch, live-stacking every frame onboard. No manual stitching, ever, even for wide targets like the Rosette or Rho Ophiuchi.
Stack for dozens of hours. Automatically.
Exclusive to Vespera, multi-night capture saves framing, exposure, gain and stacking progress across 15 project slots. Hit Resume the next clear night and keep collecting photons where you left off. Ambitious deep sky astrophotography, without the all-nighters.
Schedule the sky. Sleep through it.
Queue a sequence of observations in the Singularity app and Vespera 3 works through them unsupervised, mosaics and multi-night projects included. Your celestial safari continues while you rest.
Post-processing ready at capture end.
One auto-saved master file per project, with pre-stacked 16-bit files ready for PixInsight, Siril or any other processing suite. No juggling thousands of subframes.
From sensor to final image, inside one app.
Adjust background, contrast and colour balance, denoise, create starless views or apply Hubble-inspired palettes, all within Singularity. Ask LumENS, the built-in AI astronomy companion, what you are looking at and where to point next, by voice or text.
5 kg. Carry-on sized. Subzero rated.

Unistellar eQuinox 2 Smart Telescope
See magnitude 18.2. From a city balcony.
Set it down, tap a target, and watch galaxies and nebulae build in colour on your phone within about two minutes. This app-controlled smart telescope puts a 114 mm mirror, live image stacking and Deep Dark light-pollution filtering to work, even under bright suburban skies. No star charts, no experience needed.
See how it beats city glow View specificationsUnpacked to observing in about two minutes. No star charts, no polar alignment, no experience required.
Four technologies that remove every hard part of astronomy.
Subtracts the city from the sky.
Deep Dark Technology autonomously measures and filters the glow of urban lighting before it reaches your image. From a Sydney or Melbourne balcony, the Ring Nebula keeps its blues and reds instead of vanishing into orange skyglow.
Live stacking down to magnitude 18.2.
Enhanced Vision stacks and processes frames in real time, brightening targets tens of thousands of times fainter than the naked-eye limit. Watch the Dumbbell Nebula or the Sculptor Galaxy build colour and detail on screen within seconds.
37 million stars memorised.
The eQuinox 2 plate-solves its own position against an onboard database of 37 million stars, even when only a few are visible. It knows where it is pointing within moments of switch-on, with no polar alignment ritual.
Data NASA and SETI actually use.
Join observation campaigns run with the SETI Institute and NASA, from exoplanet transits to asteroid occultations. Unistellar users contributed real measurements to NASA's Lucy and DART missions in 2022.
11 hours. The whole night, one charge.
The internal battery runs roughly dusk to dawn, so a weekend dark-sky trip does not need a power tank. USB charging tops it up from the same brick as your phone.
64 GB onboard. RAW and FITS out.
Every observation is stored on 64 GB of internal memory, and imaging enthusiasts can export RAW and FITS files for their own processing. Snapshots share straight from the app.
The Helix Nebula. Through this telescope.
Enhanced Vision reveals the dying star's shell of glowing gas, 650 light-years away.
Pick from 5,000+ objects, watch them appear live.
Browse the catalogue in the free Unistellar app for iOS and Android; one tap sends the eQuinox 2 slewing to your chosen nebula, galaxy, planet or the Moon, tracking with closed-loop feedback. Enhanced Vision streams the sharpening view to every connected phone or tablet, so a family or a star party watches together, and a joystick mode lets you wander the sky freely. Save finished views to your camera roll and share them in moments, or pull RAW and FITS files from the 64 GB store for deeper processing.
Stargazing, together.
Because the image lives on a screen rather than in an eyepiece, everyone sees the same view at the same time, and nobody queues in the dark. Join the Unistellar network of 10,000+ observers worldwide to compare captures and take part in coordinated campaigns with professional astronomers. It makes the eQuinox 2 a smart telescope for beginners and family stargazing as much as for seasoned observers.
Captured on eQuinox 2. Straight from the app.
114 mm f/4 mirror with 450 mm focal length and a 6.2 MP sensor.
Deep Dark Technology filters light pollution for city observing.
Fully automated, computerised go-to, tracking and plate-solving. No alignment needed.

“The pinnacle of smart telescopes, offering unrivaled advancement and immersion.”
37 million stars, memorised.
The eVscope 2 compares its field of view against an onboard database of 37 million stars, aligns itself in minutes and tells you what you are looking at. No polar alignment, no star hopping, no expertise required on night one, making this an ideal smart telescope for beginners.
Faint galaxies. In seconds.
Patented live light accumulation brightens the view in front of you second by second. Galaxies, nebulae and comets that stay invisible in a conventional 114 mm reflector appear with shape and colour in moments.
Deep sky, from a CBD balcony.
Smart light pollution reduction autonomously filters the glow of Sydney or Melbourne skies before it reaches your eye. Contrast and colour survive, so a CBD balcony still reaches deep-sky targets.
5,000+ targets. One tap.
The free iOS and Android app recommends the best stargazing targets for your location and time, then points and tracks automatically. Manual controls, focus assistance and educational content are all built in.
Work with NASA and SETI.
Join the world’s largest network of connected telescopes on exoplanet transits, asteroid occultations and planetary defence campaigns. Contributing observers have been credited on published research.
64 GB. RAW and FITS.
Onboard storage holds nights of imaging, and every observation can be exported as RAW or FITS files for stacking and processing. The 7.7 Mpx sensor gives you real data to work with, not just screenshots.
Four Nikon lenses. Zero aberration.
Developed with Nikon, the electronic eyepiece pairs a micro-OLED screen, tuned for rich contrast and true blacks, with four spherical and aspherical lenses engineered to eliminate optical aberration and eye fatigue. It is a Unistellar exclusive no other telescope brand offers, and the reason observing through the eVscope 2 feels like observing, not watching a phone.
Aim in minutes.
Tap a target and the motorised alt-az mount slews at up to 4° per second while Autonomous Field Detection confirms exactly where the telescope is pointing. Setup to first object is minutes, not an evening.
Watch it develop, live.
Enhanced Vision accumulates light in real time, so the object brightens and sharpens in front of you, on screen and in the Nikon eyepiece. Up to ten devices can connect and share the same view.
Keep every observation.
Save images straight to your phone’s gallery and share them on the spot, or export RAW and FITS data from the 64 GB onboard storage for serious processing later.
The Eagle Nebula. In living colour.
Enhanced Vision sample from Unistellar. Star-forming nebulosity like this stays invisible through a conventional eyepiece of this aperture.
114 mm mirror, 450 mm focal length, fast f/4 optical design reaching limiting magnitude 18.2.
Nikon electronic eyepiece with micro-OLED display, a Unistellar exclusive.
Enhanced Vision live processing reveals colour in galaxies and nebulae within seconds.
