At ShowStoppers at CES in Las Vegas, Unistellar was showing off an advanced, smart telescope that connects to your iPad rather than squinting through an eyepiece. CEO Laurent Marfisi told us about the feature set, how it automatically calibrates to the part of the sky visible to you, and why you can get great images, even if you are in a light-polluted city. He also talks about their partnership with NASA to crowd-source astronomy, and what you need to do to be involved.
