Astrophysics - Webservatory

Getting Close to the Stars – with the world’s first fully automated telescope control.

The only web platform for
fully automatic telescope control

The foundation of the Webservatory is our Astro Bric Stack Astro-Toolkit ((Link)). The components of this dynamic platform support the control of telescopes provided specifically for this purpose by our subsidiary spacecrumb® ((Link)) – a 16″ RC in Namibia and three 24″ RC systems in Chile.

Your telescope on the web

With the Webservatory, both professional and amateur astronomers can do everything over the web that they previously had to do in person at the telescope: from simple observation to capturing images of various celestial objects, executing automated scenarios, and even tracking satellites.

An open system with extension potential

Interested in integrating your own systems into the Astro Bric Stack network and making them available to others?

How Webservatory works?

With Webservatory, you’ll truly feel like an astronomer – as if you were conducting your observations at a telescope on-site. Control, monitoring, and tactile sensations are replicated one-to-one. Webservatory seamlessly integrates observation, computing, and education.

Successful deployment in planetariums

Our innovative web platform is often utilized as a white-label product. Planetariums, for example, use it as a captivating addition to their offerings. This platform not only enables the control of a telescope system but also supports the streaming of image data. For planetarium visitors, this offers an impressive live view – a truly unique experience.

“At Baader Planetarium GmbH, we are proud to collaborate with the fantastic and motivated team at sciencentric AG to realize innovative and groundbreaking projects. Through our partnership with sciencentric, we are able to represent the complex processes of an observatory or ground station in user-friendly, multi-platform UIs in an unprecedented way. This allows us to utilize the hardware’s capacity much more effectively and make it accessible to our customers. We look forward to a continued strong and long-lasting partnership.”
