CONNECT YOUR TELESCOPE. JOIN THE NETWORK.
SkyBridge connects your compatible telescope to SkyMapper’s global observing network so you can explore through telescopes around the world while contributing trusted observations from your own sky.
BECOME A SKYKEEPER
With SkyBridge, your telescope becomes part of something bigger.
A SkyKeeper is an active participant in the SkyMapper network who makes their telescope available for shared observing, contributes observations, time, and knowledge, and helps expand our collective view of the sky. SkyKeepers also earn SkyPoints through qualifying network participation.

EXPLORE MORE WITH SKYVIEWER
Your connection to the network works both ways:
- SkyLive - observe the skies live through available telescopes around the world
- SkyScience - request an observation of a target, transient, moving object, or your own coordinates
- SkyReserve - reserve telescope time around the world or schedule deep-sky imaging
125 STARTER SKYCREDITS INCLUDED
Your SkyBridge purchase includes 125 starter SkyCredits to begin exploring the SkyMapper network.
SkyCredits can be used toward telescope access and observation services across SkyViewer. SkyKeepers also earn SkyPoints by making their telescope available and through qualifying network participation. SkyPoints can be converted into SkyCredits for use across SkyMapper services.
BUILT FOR TRUSTED OBSERVATION
SkyBridge manages local telescope control and acquisition, precise GNSS time and location metadata, secure observation transfer, device telemetry, and cryptographic observation provenance, creating a verifiable record of what was observed, where, when, and by which telescope system.
TELESCOPE COMPATIBILITY
SkyBridge currently supports compatible Unistellar telescopes.
Celestron Origin support is coming soon, followed by broader support for ASCOM-compatible telescope systems.
