Vaonis Atlas + 80mm tube

The Vaonis Atlas Single is a smart telescope with a motorised mount and one 80 mm imaging module. An imaging module is the optics and the camera in one unit. A single module is already a complete instrument.

What is Atlas?

Atlas is a smart telescope: optics, camera, motorised mount and automatic aiming are combined in one instrument that you control with your smartphone. The image of deep space builds up in colour on your screen, minute after minute, and shows details you can't see with the naked eye.

Your whole sky on your screen, with one tap on your target

The Sky Guard camera films your whole sky, from horizon to horizon, day and night, and shows the stars the way the naked eye sees them. You tap a galaxy, a nebula or the moon: Atlas aims at it, tracks it and builds up the image. The sky map is dynamic and interactive and adapts to your surroundings. This way, you get to know the constellations you see.

Sharp optics and a sensor for the night

The 80 mm module is an apochromatic refractor with four lenses, without a mirror. The sharpness reaches the physical limit from the centre to the edges of the image. The sensor is a back-illuminated Sony IMX585 (8.3 MP, 2.9 µm pixels, up to 32 MP in mosaic mode), made for faint signals. The result is sharp stars and true colours, in the city and in the countryside.

It grows with you

You click the 80 mm module onto the mount in five seconds and without tools, using the Sky Dock interface. If you want to go further, you add a second module (not included). With 'Vaonis Atlas Twin', Atlas then collects twice as much light and you achieve the same result in half the time.

Single or Twin?

Single (with one module) is a complete instrument, ideal for discovering and growing. Twin (with two modules) focuses on the faintest objects in deep space and on short nights: the same image, twice as fast. You can start with Single and later move up to Twin by adding the Atlas 80 mm imaging module.
