An amateur astronomer known as [aeropic] has created a 3D printed equatorial table designed to compensate for the Earth's rotation, allowing telescopes to accurately track celestial objects. This device is adjustable for latitudes between 30° and 50° and is powered by a stepper motor controlled by an ESP32 microcontroller. It's a cost-effective solution for long-exposure astrophotography and scientific observation, making it accessible for hobbyists who want to enjoy extended celestial viewing without the need for expensive mounting systems.
