Analog Sky stargazing binoculars are the only binoculars designed from the ground up to be pointed at the night sky. If you’ve never seen the sky through binoculars with bright 2” eyepieces, you’ve missed 1000 unforgettable sights.

And if you’re new to stargazing, there’s no better way to learn the night sky.

Heart & Soul Nebulae, Double-Cluster, Stock 2

Summer Milky Way: M8, M17, M18, M20, M21, M22, M24, M25, M28

North American Nebula & Pelican Nebula

Have you ever wished you could see Barnard’s Loop, the Angelfish Nebula, the Heart and Soul, the California Nebula, or the Cocoon Nebula together with the full Barnard 168 dark nebula? These are just a few of the huge DSOs you can only enjoy through binoculars with maximum exit pupil and 2” nebula filters. And you’ll never see vast starfields like the Sagittarius teapot steam or Scutum the same way again.

With Ember, you can see all these and more, then zoom in for grab-and-go views of the planets, the Moon, and the whole Messier catalog.

A rewarding project
for all skill levels

Analog Sky has perfected a new way to build telescopes and binoculars right at your kitchen table with a few simple tools.

Ember is a step-by-step video course that shows you exactly what to do.

In case you’re wondering, no, there’s nowhere you can buy anything like Ember. No one makes it except you.

Which lenses?

You can choose which objective lenses your Ember will use. The standard lenses provide beautiful, wide views at a great value. The longer focal length lenses offer greater magnification and higher edge sharpness but require longer focal length eyepieces to reach full exit pupil.
