Hi Maria,

No, you just need an iphone, preferrably later than 5S. 

You can use it indoors and explore and read about all the objects out there, or 
touch their shapes, or you can use it outdoors and amaze your sighted friends 
by showing them where some important constellations, planets and stars are 
located.
