Frequently Asked Questions

You can submit images via our contact form under 'Submit Your Work'. Ensure files are in JPEG or PNG format and include a brief description of your equipment and exposure details for proper attribution.

Subscribe to our newsletter or sign up for event notifications in your user profile settings. You'll receive email alerts before major sky events such as meteor showers, eclipses, or planetary alignments.

For newcomers, a refractor or small aperture reflector with a stable mount is ideal. Look for models with a focal length around 400–600 mm and simple eyepiece sets to balance ease of use and affordability.

Yes. We welcome guest articles that meet our editorial standards. Please send a summary proposal via the contact form, and our editorial team will guide you through the submission process.

To apply for telescope time through Stellarvoa, register on our portal, complete the proposal form with observation targets, and select available instruments. Our scheduling engine will coordinate with partner observatories and notify you via email when the observation slot is confirmed.

Stellarvoa supports observations of a wide range of targets, including planets, stars, nebulae, galaxies, and transient phenomena. Users can filter available instruments by wavelength, field of view, and sensitivity to match specific research objectives.

Yes. Stellarvoa offers shared project spaces where team members can upload data files, annotate images, and discuss findings in real time. Permissions can be managed to control access levels for each collaborator.

Our platform includes integrated pipelines for image calibration, spectral extraction, and time-series analysis. Users can run common algorithms through a graphical interface or export results as standard files for external tools.

New members can access our knowledge base, step-by-step tutorials, and video walkthroughs. In addition, our help desk team is reachable via email to answer technical questions and guide users through initial setup.

Data is delivered in widely adopted formats such as FITS for images and CSV or ASCII tables for catalogs. Each dataset includes metadata headers detailing instrument settings, observation conditions, and calibration steps.

Throughout the year, we host online workshops on topics like spectroscopic techniques, radio astronomy fundamentals, and advanced photometric methods. Schedule and registration details are published on our events page.

Absolutely. Our API provides endpoints to query observations, download data, and trigger processing jobs. Python and MATLAB client libraries are available to streamline integration into existing research workflows.

Once an observation is completed, raw data and initial calibration products are usually accessible within 24 to 48 hours. More complex processing requests may take additional time, depending on queue length.

Yes. We host an interactive discussion board where members can share tips, post announcements about upcoming events, and seek advice from experienced astronomers and engineers.

All incoming datasets undergo a uniform calibration pipeline that applies instrument-specific corrections, aligns coordinate systems, and normalizes metadata fields to ensure seamless comparison across observations.
