join the decentralized telescope network that's mapping the sky on-chain.
Step into a new era where every telescope becomes a node and every observer helps map the sky.
own a telescope. contribute real-world data.
SkyMapper’s journey to mainnet has begun, and you can be part of it.
map the universe together:
SkyMapper is building the world’s first decentralized network where each observation is verified and stored through Akave’s decentralized data infrastructure, creating the world’s first open, blockchain-backed astronomy network.
Join Us as We Approach Mainnet:
With On the Road to Mainnet, you’ll join the earliest wave of explorers helping shape the open, transparent, and tokenized future of astronomy.
Secure Your Place in the Network:
Purchase a telescope bundle today at a limited-time discount paying with Solana Pay, and gain early access to our tools and community, and secure your place in the decentralized sky before launch.
What's included with every purchase

SkyBridge ships separately
SkyBridge is a compact, AI-enabled device that connects your telescope to SkyMapper’s blockchain-verified data layer. It’s your node in the network, handling secure uploads, real-time observations, and proof-of-sky data validation
SkyViewer Early access
SkyViewer is our live, web-based platform where you can access telescopes worldwide, capture and view observations, and join collaborative science campaigns.
Beta Community Membership
Step into our Open Beta hub where astronomers, engineers, and enthusiasts share insights, test new features, and shape the tools that power decentralized discovery.
50 starter points
Your symbolic recognition as an early network builder. These points mark your participation before our gamified tokenomics go live, preserving your status when mainnet launches.
WHY JOIN NOW
Be among the first to explore, connect, and contribute to the sky itself.
This is your chance to help build the foundation of a global network that redefines how the world observes the universe. You’ll have front-row access to SkyMapper’s evolving ecosystem - from AI-assisted astronomy to blockchain-verified data - and stand ready to participate when gamification and rewards activate on mainnet.
And when our gamified tokenomics go live, your participation can not only earn back the cost of your telescope, but also generate ongoing rewards as your observations contribute to the growing decentralized sky.
