Make your first steps into the vastness of Space
Hestia is the best first instrument for beginners or curious people that would love to discover and understand more about what lies above us. Hestia and your smartphone combined form a portal that didn't exist before, to help you cross the Universe and witness some of the brightest Galaxies, Nebulae, and Star Clusters and begin your space journey.

Easy to use
Attach Hestia to its tripod and align your smartphone’s main camera with Hestia's ocular with the help of Gravity by Vaonis. Pick your destination and let the app guide you to find it. And voilà! You are ready to go and enjoy the beauties of the Cosmos.

A jewel of miniaturisation
With its patented six-lens optical design featuring a 30 mm (1.2 inch) objective and prisms to collect and focus the light directly into your smartphone's camera sensor, Hestia pushes back the limits of miniaturization.

Future proof
Thanks to a system of removable magnets, Hestia accommodates all sizes of current and future smartphones. Hestia will only get better and better over time.

No batteries required
Hestia operates without electronics at its core, relying solely on an optical design system. That means no need for a battery, no risk of power loss

Navigate the Cosmos with Gravity app
The app is designed to assist you on your space adventures, Day and Night, guide you to the stars with ease, and bring you exciting content.

Get the best of your photos
Hestia's companion app enhances your observation using our proprietary image processing algorithms to combine and align multiple short-exposure images captured by your smartphone into a single high-quality photograph.

IMPORTANT NOTE: please make sure not to point the telescope at the Sun without the included Hestia Solar Filter. If you do so, you might potentially damage your camera's sensor and this might result in an out of warranty camera repair. We cannot take any financial responsibility if you damage your smart phone.
