We put the company’s anti-light pollution tech to the test against the bright lights of the Vegas Strip.
Unisteller boasts it has a catalog of 5,000 celestial objects that the telescope can automatically angle for, though users should be able to set their own coordinates, especially as the company has tried to promote its “citizen scientist” community, like those who watchedfrom home. There were few stars visible from the ground so close to Vegas, but the eVscope 2 didn’t seem to have much trouble tracking Venus, Mars, or the far distant Triangle Galaxy.
The image of the Triangle Galaxy captured by the eVscope 2 telescope by Unisteller, using the company’s anti-light pollution technology.Marfisi said, for those with more time and patience than I had, you could sit there for an hour or more as the camera iterated on the images it was capturing, which should resolve into a more detailed image over time. The app also included a fair bit of information about what we were looking at, including some history and basic scientific facts.
Despite all the promises of anti-light pollution tech, users will still have to keep multiple factors in mind. Marfisi told me that night it was relatively humid for the usually dry Las Vegas air, evidenced by the diffused spotlights coming from the nearby Mandalay Bay Hotel. Even with the in-built technology meant to filter light pollution, there will still be many considerations for the avid stargazer when breaking out their telescope, especially in an urban setting.
My time with the Unistellar telescopes did leave me very intrigued. The light pollution reduction tech did seem to drop out much of the ambient light, though I would need to do a lot more testing with the tech to give it a full grade.
