The Unistellar eVscope 2 Telescope

A telescope that will leave even city slickers with stars in their eyes

In the last Landing Gear column, we featured the Weber Lumin, an outdoor electric grill for urbanites to barbecue the evening away on an apartment balcony without smoking out the neighbors.

Continuing the summer-nights-in-the-city theme, this week we bring you an excellent digital telescope from a niche maker in Marseilles, France, called Unistellar. All their telescopes come with a new software package, Deep Dark Technology, that reduces light pollution, but we think Unistellar’s star attraction is their top model, the eVscope 2, with the optional Nikon eyepiece.
