#Unistellar #eVscope
Today's Sun with sunspot #AR4341, the culprit of last night's solar storm, right in the middle. Imaged with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope.
Jupiter is captured well with the EVscope. It exceeds my Seestar’s ability for viewing large planets.
The Orion Nebula can be viewed in full color in a matter of a few minutes. Imaging beyond 5 minutes offers little improvement. This was 19 mins and it really isn’t noticeably better than after only a few minutes. As a result, Astrophotography isn’t stellar (forgive the pun), but it is great for viewing live and sharing the experience with others.
The Horsehead Nebula requires perhaps 10 mins to get a good live image, beyond this offers little additional detail Still, it’s fun to view live and then move on to the next object of interest for the night.
Unistellar EVscope images from last night. This scope is best for fast live viewing vs astrophotography (IMHO). With a group, it’s particularly fun to very quickly view many amazing deep sky objects in a single night. #Unistellar #astronomy #stars #Nebula #planet #jupiter #EVscope
During a rare clear night I had the chance to finally catch the interstellar #comet #3IATLAS, which is currently outbound from our solar system, with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope.
#EECep is an unusual binary star, a so-called "disk-occulting system". Every 5.6 years the Be-class primary is eclipsed by a dark dusty disk of its invisible secondary star, resulting in quite long eclipses of 57 days. One is currently happening, observed with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope.
The large sunspot region #AR4274 is currently facing Earth, imaged with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope.

Recently I caught two Near Earth #Asteroids in one night and observed them for ~90 minutes each, collecting position and brightness data with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope, to get their orbits and sizes refined. Both objects, #2000EZ148 & #2004FN18, are Apollo-type asteroids.
Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) ce matin 6h depuis la région Marseillaise … avec mon #eVscope @unistellar.bsky.social . Un peu trop tard… difficile d’avoir la traînée… à retenter vers 4h 😴
@cieletespace.bsky.social
Last night I tracked two Near Earth Asteroids with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope.
#2025FA22 is a 130–290m ø asteroid, that came within 2.2 LD of Earth on Sep. 17.
Different views of spiral galaxies. 🌀
#NGC5907 is oriented almost edge-on, whereas #galaxy #M101 shows its full disk, because we look along its rotational axis.
📷 captured yesterday with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope.
Do you own a @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope, #eQuinox or #ODYSSEY? New to #astronomy & want to learn the #science of what’s captured in your #smart #telescope?
Spots are filling up fast for our very special 5-part #workshop series dedicated to @unistellar.com.web.brid.gy owners!

Last night I caught the Astranis #UtilitySat with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope. The satellite is stuck in transfer orbit on its way to GEO, due to an electric thruster malfunction. Recent reports indicate that #Astranis is still working to recover the satellite though.

Light-curve produced with amateur Unistellar observations, showing one transit of the planet.
Oh nice! A long-peroid giant planet with an orbital period of 101.94 days, called TOI-4465 b, was confirmed by professional astronomers.
It also included observations by 24 amateur astronomers with #Unistellar telescopes.

Supernova #SN2025fvw is visible in galaxy #NGC5957, captured with my #eVscope. It is a type Ia #supernova, a thermonuclear explosion of a white dwarf. Continuous observations by the @unistellar.bsky.social citizen science community show its light curve and how it is now fading over time.
A large sunspot group is currently visible on the Sun. I watched it with eclipse glasses and my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope.
Partial solar eclipse on March 29th, 2025. The image shows the bright orange, textured disc of the Sun against a black background. A dark curve representing the Moon blocks the upper portion of the Sun. A small, dark sunspot is visible near the top left edge.
I got a great view of the partial solar eclipse yesterday from Hampshire, UK. 🌒 This was captured this using my @unistellar.bsky.social Evscope with their Smart Solar Filter add-on. #SolarEclipse #PartialEclipse #UK #Hampshire #Astronomy #Astrophotography #Evscope #Space
phone screen showing dark cranberry-red moon in eclipse. App screen has a few buttons with icons at the bottom including a camera button, one labeled move, one labeled observation, one labeled edit.
Slightly more detailed but grayer version of same image surrounded by a thin white circle indicating a telescope field of view and small printed label around bottom third of circle that reads: Unistellar 11h 38m 2.09s/+2° 19' 55.1° - 13.86ms - 34°N 118°W - MAR 14 2025
@unistellar.bsky.social or any #unistellar #evscope users — I'm a vision-challenged user still learning the basics. Does anyone know why, when I Edited exposure/gain in Live View manually, the app view of the #lunareclipse looked like left screencap,but "take photo" saved images were desaturated?
Here's what it looks like without the mood music i found on instagram. I just recorded the screen on my phone from the app while observing #bloodmoon through #unistellar #evscope; it doesn't have native video. Strong wind was shaking the tripod as well as blowing the clouds across the moon.
I wanted to test the limits of my rig, so I set out to capture a faint #supernova. This is #SN2025dr in the galaxy #UGC670 which currently has a brightness of lower than 17 mag. (Yeah, you have to zoom in). My #eVscope managed to image it from within a capital city under Bortle 7 skies. Impressive!
This #exoplanet transit, observed with my #eVscope, is from a Hot Jupiter type gas giant orbiting the main component of a trinary star system. #KELT4Ab is as massive as Jupiter, but 1.6 times larger due to its puffed up atmosphere. Its year is just 3 days.

Two nights ago I recorded this nice #exoplanet transit with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope. It is a Saturn sized gas giant, with similar mass, orbiting its K-type host star in just 8.2 days.

This speck of light is a type Ic #supernova, captured with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope. It is a rare stripped-core collapse supernova, a massive star that has lost most/all of its hydrogen/helium shell before explosion. #SN2025oq shines at 15.9 mag brightness in its #NGC2744 host galaxy.
This is #SN2024aeee captured with my @unistellar.bsky.social #eVscope in the barred spiral galaxy #NGC2523. It is a type II supernova, which happens when a massive star suffers a core collapse and explodes. This #supernova currently shines at 15.9 mag brightness.
