Milky Way Spacewalking: a video

Spacewalking with a binocular chair is leisurely cruising in star fields, totally immersed. Here’s why:

  • you’re in a comfortable reclining chair with access to the entire sky
  • you’re using both eyes, up close to the eyepieces 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 using low or medium magnification, to gain perspective and to see 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 (less effective atmospheric thickness)

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

Shown below is like what’s 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, especially on a dark transparent night.
