Open the sky. No photo needed.
Explore a star chart with constellation lines and illustrations as your guide. You can begin with a little curiosity, even before taking your first night-sky photo.
ASTROTRIP
A little closer to the stars.
We are building apps and exploring new equipment to make looking up, taking photos and keeping those moments more rewarding.
AstroTrip for iPhone
Enjoy the stars. Keep the memories.
Explore the star chart. Discover constellations in your photos. Turn a night under the stars into artwork and memories.
There is more than one way to begin.
Start with the sky, or with a photo you already have. Follow your own curiosity.
Make a photo feel like your night.
Adjust the mood of your photo, add constellation art and a frame, and make something personal. Keep the people and the landscape that made the moment yours.

- Make it your own

What’s next
Building our tools, one step at a time.
Our first priority is making the current AstroTrip app better to use. We plan, design and develop everything ourselves, and test it under the night sky.
Making AstroTrip more enjoyable
We will keep improving the app based on what users tell us. Several new features are already being planned, so stay tuned.
Looking further ahead
- For anyone who wants to photograph the sky
- We are considering a dedicated camera app that makes it easier to capture the night sky you love.
- For telescope observing and landscape astrophotography on a portable equatorial mount
- Finding a target, getting a polar alignment: we are exploring tools that make this kind of preparation easier with a smartphone.
- For dedicated astrophotography
- We are envisioning a system that brings equipment control and image processing together and runs them automatically.
We will share each one as it takes shape.
Making things. Looking up.
Our journal follows real observing experiences, equipment we have used and the process of making products. Articles are currently in Japanese.
