Unistellar Odyssey Pro can still catch the Tsuchinshan Comet

What this episode covers

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.        The Comet Tsuchinshan Atlas may be beyond the reach of the naked eye now….but is still amazing to see using a telescope.  Unistellar’s Odyssey Pro is the telescope of choice here for its ease of use, built in camera and portability.  And the latest software update uses what the company calls Vivid Vision Technology to the picture with more detail and color.   Co-founder and astronomer Franck Marchis.. “What we do with this telescope is to basically take very short observations and stack them and remove the noise and so on.  So slowly when you look into the eyepiece of the telescope or on your phone, you basically see an electronic image which is getting better.” The Unistellar telescopes run several thousand dollars…certainly a big investment, but the ease they bring to astronomy can make that investment worthwhile.
