An artificial star is a specialized accessory that allows you to check and make corrections to the telescope's collimation without having to go outside and wait for dusk to come.

Allsky 50 µm emits a light spot with a diameter of 50 µm. The device is equipped with the possibility of adjusting the brightness, allowing for simulation of different stellar magnitudes.
