    Compact, Cool photos, Easy to set up

    I joined the crowd for the April eclipse and wanted a way to capture the whole experience without lugging around a giant telescope. The Hestia was great for that! It's compact and lightweight, easy to set up in the park. The app helped me find the sun safely (safety first, people!), and I got some cool photos of the corona during totality. Can't wait to use it for the night sky objects.

    The Hestia is a great little telescope for beginners. It's definitely more affordable than some of the other Vaonis options, and the image quality is decent for the price (combined with my iPhone 15). I love how portable it is - I can easily take it out to darker skies for better views. However, it does have some limitations: The deep sky catalog, and I wish there were more manual controls for experienced users like myself. Overall, it's a very solid choice for anyone starting out in astrophotography.

    Overpriced Joke. Don’t buy this. There are much most cost effective smart telescopes that make this device look like a child’s toy

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
