Singularity by Vaonis is the control center for your Stellina and Vespera observation stations. This intuitive mobile application allows you to explore the Cosmos with ease.
Receive personalized recommendations on which objects to observe according to your geolocation and the astronomical calendar.
Learn more about the history of the Universe and immortalize your trip by photographing galaxies, nebulae and star clusters.
AUTOMATIC SETUP
Just press the button, and let Stellina and Vespera do the rest. Your new companion will use your GPS to find its position on Earth, adjust its focus and be ready to take you anywhere you want in less than 5 minutes.
AUTOMATIC ALIGNEMENT AND TRACKING
Choose your destination in the Singularity object catalog or enter the celestial coordinates of the object.
Your station will automatically point to the selected area, and track it to maintain optimal viewing conditions.
IMAGE PROCESSING
It only takes a few seconds for Stellina and Vespera to deliver the first image of your destination before compiling dozens, hundreds or even thousands of other images in real time, progressively revealing ever greater details and colors.
SPACE CENTER
Take control of your station from the Space Center: prepare your observation evening by checking the weather forecast, create and manage your observation locations, check the parameters of Stellina/Vespera... You can also read the astronomical news or our advice on Stellina and Vespera on our blog while waiting for nightfall.
MOSAIC MODE
CovalENS is the first automated “panorama mode” ever embedded into a telescope.
This unique patented technology, developed by Vaonis, allows you to take several photos of a same stellar region and then automatically stitch them together, thus offering users a larger view (field) of the universe.
SOLAR MODE
Observe easily and safely the closest star to Earth during the day with the Vaonis solar filters. The Solar Mode allows you to observe and capture sunspots that show the intensity of the Sun’s activity.
EXPERT MODE
Access an unlimited number of objects with coordinate pointing. Customize your camera's exposure time and gain to generate initial files for manual processing using image editing software.
PLAN MY NIGHT
Program your observation station for the night and let it explore the Universe on its own. After a good night's sleep, recover your photos on a USB key (Stellina) or via Wi-FI FTP protocol (Vespera).
SHARE YOUR JOURNEY ON SOCIAL NETWORKS
Your trip is over, share it! Show the world your photos on social networks and join our community of explorers, using the hashtags #myStellina or #myVespera.
I am happy so far. I did not have the scope a few updates ago where some people experienced serious issues with the scope. I did have an update which turned solar images green for some reason. Both are now fixed. So their quality control could use some improvement. As far as use of the app goes I like a lot of it. Easy to use and set up the scope. I love viewing the images as they come in from the warmth of my home or car. The simple image processing added in the last update was very nice. A few suggestions if anyone is listening: be able to plan a multi-night, mosaic or a viewing with a filter without requiring me to have the scope on and configured on how I would use it. I want to be able to set it up in the app, set how I want the scope to be configured and then, later, when I go to collect data, warn me on the app if I was to start a planned night and the scope isn’t configured as planned. Also landscape mode on an iPad would be nice to have and in today’s age I can’t image it is too difficult. Lastly, many iOS apps can work on M-chip MacBooks it would be nice to run Singularity from my MacBook.
Love it

Been getting great results. Need to have planning enabled for the new scope. Also, since the scope is limited to it’s own processing, would be nice to have in-app post processing or even restacking with different settings. Would also be great to stack over different nights. Finally, pictures of the moon are horrible, not sure why, but given ten minutes for the ring nebula in light polluted sky’s, I am impressed.
Please please please add landscape for iPad.

The fact that landscape is not supported on iPad is a huge development oversight. Please support landscape for iPad. No one uses an iPad in portrait mode.Aside from that, the app seems smooth. Like another reviewer, I too downloaded the app in anticipation of my Vespera being delivered tomorrow. That being the case, I haven’t used it outside of signing up and a quick browse through the tabs to see what is offered. Not much going on in the app without the telescope connected, so I’ll update my review after I spend some time with it.Seriously, the app being forced into portrait mode makes me apprehensive to even open the telescope. If I have to use the app in portrait, I’m not sure I even want the hardware. Please fix this asap.
Clean and well designed

I had been using the app with my Vespera 2 for a while now and find the app excellent. Not a single crash or hanging. The app is well designed and very easy to navigate through. You are never more than a tap or two away from whatever you are trying to do. The only area for improvement I would suggest: show better catalog images instead of extremely blurred images that are not that useful. Keep up the good work Team!
