What is Atlas?
Atlas is a smart telescope: optics, camera, motorized mount and automatic pointing in a single instrument controlled from your smartphone. The deep-sky image builds in color on your screen, minute after minute, revealing details impossible to see with the naked eye, even through a very large telescope.
See your whole sky, from horizon to horizon, and touch your target with a fingertip
The Sky Guard camera films your whole sky, from horizon to horizon, day and night, and shows the stars as the naked eye would. Tap a galaxy, a nebula or the Moon: Atlas points to it, tracks it and builds the image. The dynamic, interactive sky map adapts to your real surroundings: discover the constellations visible tonight with Sky Guard and build your knowledge of the sky. Up to ten people can follow the observation on their own phones.
It evolves with you
The Atlas mount is guaranteed for 10 years and built for all your explorations. The 80 mm imaging module clips onto it in five seconds through the Sky Dock interface, no tools. When you want to go further, add a second module: with Sky Twin, Atlas collects twice the light and reaches the same result in half the time. More modules will follow, starting with a planetary module.
Reference optics, a sensor made for the night
The 80 mm module is a four-lens apochromatic refractor with no mirror, whose sharpness reaches the physical limit from the center to the edges of the image. Its back-illuminated Sony IMX585 sensor (8.3 MP, 2.9 µm pixels, up to 24 MP mosaics) is built for faint signal. The result: pinpoint stars and faithful colors, in the city as in the countryside.
The four steps to your first image
1. Set Atlas down and level it: the accelerometer and the LED ring guide you. 2. Connect over NFC or the built-in Wi-Fi, in a few seconds. 3. Launch the Gaia app: Atlas aligns itself and Sky Guard shows your whole sky, from horizon to horizon. 4. Select your target in the Sky Guard view: Atlas orients itself, tracks, focuses and stacks exposures; the image reveals itself live, for you and up to ten other connected screens.
Single or Twin?
Single (1 module) is a complete instrument, ideal to discover and progress. Twin (2 modules) targets the faintest deep-sky objects and short nights: the same image, twice as fast. You can start with Single and upgrade to Twin later by adding the Atlas 80 mm imaging module.
