Vaonis Hestia Essential Pack
Turn your smartphone into an intelligent telescope
With the power of your smartphone and Vaonis' cutting-edge technology, Hestia allows you to capture the brilliance of the sun, the mesmerizing beauty of the moon and the fascinating depths of the universe - without complex setups or extensive knowledge of astronomy. Simply place your smartphone on Hestia's eyepiece, point the device at the celestial object of your choice, let the extremely user-friendly app guide you and open up a whole new world of exploration.
Take your first steps into the vastness of space.
Before we become space colonels, we all start out as young star cadets. Hestia is the best tool for beginners or curious people who would like to discover more and understand what lies above us. Hestia and your smartphone together form a portal that didn't exist before to help you traverse the universe and see some of the brightest galaxies, nebulae and star clusters and start your space journey.
Sun...sational!
As the sun approaches the peak of its current solar cycle, our star is becoming increasingly active. Observing sunspots with Hestia and its solar filter (optional) will help you understand the sun's behavior, its influence on space weather and its impact on our planet.
Just click and go.
Hestia is anything but complex. Mount Hestia on its tripod and point your smartphone's main camera at Hestia's eyepiece using the Gravity by Vaonis mobile application. Choose your destination and let the app guide you there. And voilà! You're ready to enjoy the beauties of the cosmos.
Navigate the cosmos with Gravity by Vaonis, the app from Hestia.
The app is designed to support you in your space adventures by day and night, guiding you to the stars with ease and providing you with exciting content. So, buckle up, get cozy and immerse yourself in the cosmos.
A jewel of miniaturization.
With its patented optical design featuring six lenses, a 30 mm objective and prisms to collect and focus light directly onto your smartphone's camera sensor, Hestia pushes the boundaries of miniaturization.
Future-proof.
