 The app’s Home screen will show your Seestar and battery level, provide a local weather forecast, offer three observation modes you can choose from, offer some observing recommendations, displays a bottom menu that includes a Home button and, among other things, an awesome Sky Atlas. The app’s Home screen will show your Seestar and battery level, provide a local weather forecast, offer three observation modes you can choose from, offer some observing recommendations, displays a bottom menu that includes a Home button and, among other things, an awesome Sky Atlas.

 This mode really should be called DSO (Deep Sky Objects) because it is designed for exploring and capturing galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, comets, asteroids, double stars, etc. This mode really should be called DSO (Deep Sky Objects) because it is designed for exploring and capturing galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, comets, asteroids, double stars, etc.

 Here's an image of the Sombrero Galaxy (M104) created in just 22 minutes of data collection (49 minutes on the clock)((The Seestar has a quality algorithm that picks or rejects each image that's captured. If the telescope jiggles or a cloud floats by, rejection will make the clock time exceed the capture time shown in the top right corner of the screen)) Here's an image of the Sombrero Galaxy (M104) created in just 22 minutes of data collection (49 minutes on the clock)((The Seestar has a quality algorithm that picks or rejects each image that's captured.

-Seestar's GoTo will find the Sun, the Moon(even during the daytime), and the planets, automatically keep the target centered in the frame, as it travels across the sky. The telescope and camera can capture lunar features like craters, mountains, and valleys with 2x and 4x views, and solar active areas and sunspots.+Seestar's GoTo will find the Sun, the Moon (even during the daytime), and the planets, automatically keep the target centered in the frame, as it travels across the sky.

 Video recording capabilities (MP4 or AVI) allow you to use other software to collect a bunch a frames in close succession and then select the sharpest frames in the movie so you can process them later. PIPP, AstroStakkert!3, Registax and waveSharp are the weapons of choice in battle against noise in the Windows world. Video recording capabilities (MP4 or AVI) allow you to use other software to collect a bunch a frames in close succession and then select the sharpest frames in the movie so you can process them later.
