Review: Dark skys ds fx - It's great, wish there was colour discs, but they will come in time, it's silent in operation, but you do need dark room and smooth ceiling to get the best view. Apart from that bye one you won't be disappointed.
Review: The DS-FX is a small, portable star projector / planetarium. It is similar in size and function to the Sega Homestar, but is much nicer and less expensive. The build of the projector is solid, and unlike my Homestar it can focus sharply. The projected image covers my entire ceiling and is quite bright, much brighter than the Homestar. The built-in battery lasts for several hours, and charging is easy via the USB-C port. The disc rotation is slow and stately, and almost completely silent. The control buttons are easy to find in the dark and feel solid. The projector includes a discount code for buying discs. The only downsides to the projector are: It uses its own format of discs, and so cannot use any of the wide selection of Homestar-format discs, which is a shame. And the available discs are--so far--only grayscale, no color at all. Hopefully Dark Skys will figure out how to make color discs so that the projector can display some of the amazing Hubble and JWST planetary and nebula images. Even with these negatives, I highly recommend the projector itself. Just it alone and the included disc are excellent, and at a good price. I like that the star discs are each built into their own trays and come with protective sleeves. However, the trays are bulky and surprisingly have absolutely no identification as to what is on the disc. There is an identifying sticker on the sleeve, but since the sleeve is separate from the disc, it's easy to mix them up. For now, with only a few fairly unique discs out, that's not a big problem, but it will be when more astronomical discs are produced. The included Northern Hemisphere disc does not include a sleeve. In terms of the discs, they are a bit hit-or-miss. The included disc is spectacular. It is a view of the Milky Way and zillions of other stars. However, as other reviewers have noted, most of the stars just seem to be grains or noise, and are distracting, not realistic in terms of representing a dark star-filled night. I'd personally prefer that most of them be removed or muted. Also, there is subtle banding or rippling in my disc's image. I've seen similar--and much worse--banding in Homestar discs, so this is a minor nit. I also bought the FX-20 Stormy Nights disc and FX-21 Moon disc directly from Dark Skys. The Stormy Nights disc is more of an artistic presentation, and subjectively it is nice, but just nice. I don't regret buying it, but will probably not use it often. The Moon disc is probably my favorite. It has a nice balance of the Moon plus a wide starfield, and there are not "too many stars" on this disc. My only nit is that I expected the Moon to be much larger. I would happily buy a second disc that is mostly or entirely filled by the Moon in high detail. Currently, there are two other discs available from Dark Skys, the FX-ADM Twinkling Stars module and the FX-22 Constellations disc, neither of which I personally am interested in. Overall, in terms of discs, I would recommend the Moon disc, and possibly recommend the Stormy Nights disc as an alternative to astronomical discs. I am looking forward to more discs from Dark Skys, hopefully color ones!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much brighter is the flagship DS-1 model compared to the DS-FX?**
A: Yes the DS1 is brighter but it’s hard to say how much brighter. My best guess is 30-40% brighter.
Thanks, Chris
