Humble Telescope by ENESS

Many of us are curious about the universe around
us, however for most of us the task of star
gazing is out of reach. Light pollution in our
cities prevents us from seeing the marvel
that is the night sky.

The Humble Telescope is designed
as an interactive civic sculpture that brings
the wonders of space down to earth and into
our cities, to encourage us learn more
about the universe and perhaps appreciate
our own world a little more.

Inside the telescope exists a 3D simulation
of our entire known universe. Pointing the telescope
in any direction immediately shows us what
exists in that area of space, so now we can
get a greater understanding of where the
planets are and where we live in the Milky Way.

The Humble Telescope serves as an on-going
reminder of how truly amazing our universe is,
and how truly small we are in context. What better
way to provoke thought and discussion concerning
our existence, where we are going, and ultimately
inspire us to care more about our home, Earth.

If you are interested in seeing the Humble
in your neck of the universe, feel free to
contact us anytime.
