Milky Way spacewalking: a video

Spacewalking with a binocular chair is leisurely cruising in star fields, totally immersed.

Here’s why you’re so immersed:

  • you’re in a comfortable reclining chair with access to the entire sky
  • you’re using both eyes, up close to the oculars and perfectly aligned with them, in a large field of view
  • you’re looking straight through to a non-inverted view, unlike through most telescopes
  • you’re very finely adjusting the view in any direction with a slight touch
  • you’re just using medium magnification, which allows seeing perspective and spatial relationships
  • your view is steady, due to the stable mount and the comfortable viewing position
  • you have easy high elevation viewing, where it’s generally clearer and darker, due to less effective atmospheric thickness and less skyglow, and with fewer trees and buildings obstructing the view

Like in a virtual reality cockpit…. but slow… just floating in the star fields!

Shown below is like what is seen when a bino-chair is cruising in star fields. Of course the actual view is more immersive and 3D, with shimmering pin-point stars.
