Singularity
Singularity is Vaonis’s free mobile app for controlling Stellina, Vespera, and Hyperia telescopes. GPS helps locate the telescope, adjust focus, and prepare observing in under five minutes. Users can select catalog objects or enter celestial coordinates for automatic pointing and tracking. The app combines successive images in real time to reveal additional detail and color, while CovalENS stitches images of the same stellar region into a wider view. Solar Mode supports sunspot observing and photography with a Vaonis solar filter. Space Center provides weather forecasts, saved locations, telescope settings, astronomy news, and advice. Expert Mode adds coordinate pointing and camera exposure and gain controls. Plan My Night schedules unattended sessions, with photo retrieval by USB for Stellina or Wi-Fi FTP for Vespera. Photos can be stored on a device or Vaonis Cloud, and events added to a calendar. An account and internet access during download and use are required.
