About


Nyx Tech began with my frustration over a lack of affordable star tracking options. I knew what I wanted - a compact, user friendly, competitively performing tracking mount that didn't cost a student loan payment. Finding that this didn't exist, I set out to make my own.

After perusing barn door tracker designs on the internet, I kluged together a tracker that became the first ancestor of the Nyx Tracker. After a year I built a much-improved version. I made 10 extra and sold them at cost to Redditors on the r/astrophotography reddit because I enjoy making and sharing things. The magnitude of the positive reception was entirely unexpected! Seeing a need for this product in the community, I decided to build more. Years later, the Nyx Tracker is in its 5th generation.

Today, Nyx Tech is a team of a few individuals who work weekends and nights to put the stars in your hands.
