Slooh - remote control of telescopes

Scruff · 2009-10-08 09:33:29

Has anyone heard of or used this service called Slooh ? For $50\year it gives you unlimited time remotely controlling a choice of 3 telesopes worldwide. Seems very interesting considering the cost of buying decent equipment to use with the crap weather we have here. I think you schedule the time you want to use it in…

I could definetly understand why some people would like to use it, and the factors we have here in Ireland, but for me, I think it'd just take away the whole feeling of doing it yourself. I can definetly see why some people would be keen on it though. It would be interesting to use a few times for the views.
