A session in progress
Watch the night develop
Publish your gallery before the first exposure lands. Share one link — and viewers watch it grow, frame by frame, until dawn.
Free software·Self-hostable·Seestar-friendly
A live stack, recreated — every Astra gallery refreshes like this while you image.
A session, as your viewers live it
You start imaging and publish the collection from Astra — one click, before a single frame exists.
The gallery is live. You send the link to your club, your group chat, your feed.
Every thirty seconds the gallery checks for new images. Each finished frame appears as it lands.
The session ends. The finished collection is already published — nothing left to upload.
What your viewers see
No account, no app, no refresh button. The gallery keeps itself current while they watch.
Recreated here — in a published gallery these frames arrive from your telescope.
Built around the log, not the likes
An honest observation log
Every session catalogued — targets, conditions, integration, notes. FITS metadata read straight from your files.
Your gear, remembered
Telescopes, mounts, cameras, filters. Seestar owners get presets out of the box — your images arrive already understood.
One-click galleries
Pick a collection, publish. Thumbnails, lightbox, object data — generated for you, straight from the desktop app.
Auto-refreshing by default
Published galleries poll for new images every thirty seconds. Share the link at dusk; it's still growing at dawn.
Your data stays yours
Run the whole service on your own hardware if you like. No lock-in, no harvesting — the log lives with you.
Free software, all the way down
Desktop app, gallery service, viewer — every line is AGPL v3. Read it, change it, run your own.
Recently published
Free software, in the old sense
The desktop app, this gallery service, and every line between them are open. Built that way on purpose — because your observation log is a record of your nights under the sky, and your data should always be yours.
