The Vaonis Stellina is a pioneering, all-in-one "smart" observation station that combines an 80mm ED doublet refractor telescope, an astro-modified Sony CMOS camera sensor, and a built-in image processing computer. Designed for beginners and travel, it automates deep-sky astrophotography, making stargazing simple enough to control entirely from a smartphone or tablet app.
Key Features and Specifications
Aperture & Optics: 80mm refractor with a 400mm focal length (f/5) and Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass.
Sensor: Features a 6.4-megapixel Sony IMX178 color sensor that delivers high-resolution images.
Automation: Features completely motorized Go-To pointing, tracking, and autofocus, bypassing the need for manual polar or star alignments.
Live Stacking: Instead of traditional eyepiece viewing, the station takes rapid exposures of nebulae, galaxies, and the moon, automatically stacking and enhancing the images in real-time on your mobile device.
City-Friendly: Built-in light pollution filters (CLS) and a mechanical humidity/dew heater allow you to view the night sky even from an urban backyard.
Connectivity: Broadcasts its own Wi-Fi network, letting up to 20 users connect and view images at the same time.
Portability: Powered by a rechargeable battery (usually lasting about 5 hours) and comes with a premium carbon fiber tripod. It weighs roughly 25 lbs (11.2 kg).
