“What we do with this telescope is to basically take very short observations and stack them and remove the noise and so on.  So slowly when you look into the eyepiece of the telescope or on your phone, you basically see an electronic image which is getting better.”

The Unistellar telescopes run several thousand dollars…certainly a big investment, but the ease they bring to astronomy can make that investment worthwhile.
