philjay Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 My astro has suffered alot these past 8 months, weather, health issues and lighter nights have got in the way. So after a brain wave I resurrected my account with Itelescope the other day in order to use a scope at Siding Springs. Saturday and sunday weather over there was poor but forecast for today (tomorrow in Aus) was clear and I planned to give 47 Tucans a go as it was away from the moon, guess what?... Its clear yes...but the roof of the obs is closed due to high humidity arrrrggggghhhhh! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Do they charge for it and, if so, how much? My antidote to the lighter evenings is to enjoy the Sun: http://sungazer127mak.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/july-2014.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjay Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 No they don't Phil because the observatory is closed. You only pay for what you use on an imaging run. I'm also trying to do solar as well but the UK weather has been getting in the way there also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
