Here comes DWARF LAB, the third brand of smart telescopes on LP

It's no secret that LP has begun to focus on smart telescopes in astronomy, which is clearly where we see the future of the field. Following the Unistellar and ZWO brands, we made a distribution deal with DWARF LAB at the end of this year. So you can now find 3 of the 4 most pioneering companies in the field on LP.

Finally, clarity: Orion, Pleiades and other tips for holiday astrophotography with smart telescopes

Without claiming any fortune telling skills, we know that many of you found a smart telescope under the tree this year😀. So the following tips might come in handy. From Thursday 25th to Saturday 27th December we should have clear skies over our area - ideal conditions for astro photography. A full astronomical night is already setting in around 6pm. If all goes well, we will be able to observe and photograph deep-sky objects until at least 10 pm, when fog may form in some areas.

Winter solstice - a great time for astronomical observations

When the Sun reaches its southernmost position on its "annual journey across the sky", the winter solstice occurs. In the northern hemisphere, this means the shortest day and the longest night of the year. Here, the day lasts just over eight hours, while the night offers an exceptionally long viewing window that it would be a shame not to take advantage of.

Binoculars as you don't know them. Unistellar ENVISION rewrites the rules of world observation

A few years ago, it would have sounded like science fiction. Today it's reality. Unistellar, known as the maker of the world's largest and most advanced smart telescopes, has announced the arrival of an entirely new category of optics: the ENVISION smart binocular.

Glimpse of the night side of the Moon captured on video

The student managed to record a rare phenomenon - a brief flash of light on an unlit part of the Moon, caused by a small meteoroid hitting its surface. The event was captured on December 12 by a robotic telescope. It represents the first such video taken from within Ireland and the second overall in the UK.

Unistellar Odyssey N 85/320 Intelligent Astronomical Telescope - Part One Sun Observation

In the next few weeks we'll take a detailed look at Unistellar's cheapest telescope, the Odyssey N 85/320. The first part will be dedicated to solar observing, which wasn't the original intention but since the weather has been so ... for the last 3 weeks, it worked out that way. :)

First close-up images of the nova explosion - like a laboratory of extreme physics

Astronomers have used the CHARA Array interferometric system to take real-time images of a nova explosion for the first time ever. This is the most detailed observation of this type of stellar explosion to date. Experts liken it to going from black-and-white grainy photography to UHD video.

Nancy Grace Roman's telescope completed; NASA reports key milestone

NASA has announced crucial information about the development of the Nancy Grace Roman Telescope. Engineers have managed to bring together all the major structural parts into the final form of the observatory. The project is now entering the final phase of ground testing before actual launch preparations.

How to photograph the Moon with the ZWO Seestar S50 telescope

Although primarily designed for deep-sky photography, i.e. galaxies, nebulae and other deep space objects, photographing the Moon with the SeeStar S50 is not only possible, but also very easy. Even a complete beginner without any knowledge or additional equipment can photograph or film the moon in one click.
