Drain campaign: spend the balance by 10 Aug, then close the account

Browse source 
User decision 2026-07-18: use the full 2,638-point balance on southern
imaging, then cancel the membership before the 12 Aug renewal (GBP 32).
CAMPAIGN.md holds the plan: policy facts that force the order (points are
non-refundable and unusable without an active subscription, per support
article 142963), a three-phase allocation shaped by the moon (dark-night
LRGB now and 3-10 Aug, narrowband through the bright 24 Jul - 2 Aug week),
a per-session ledger to reconcile against account/history.aspx, the 10 Aug
data-download-then-cancel endgame, and the rule that the cancellation POST
itself is never submitted without explicit user confirmation on the day.

plans/ngc6744-t59.txt is the first paid run (T59, L 15x300 Bin1 + RGB
7x300 Bin2, ~180 min imaging, ~240 pts), already uploaded to T59 and
verified byte-identical. PROJECT.md and TODO.md updated to make the drain
the active objective for any future session.

A reference and review of the iTelescope.net remote telescope network: what each
telescope is, what it is good at, and which one to book for a given kind of target.
Since 2026-07-18 the active objective is the drain campaign (CAMPAIGN.md): spend
the account's 2,638 points on southern-sky imaging by 10 Aug 2026, download all
data, then cancel the membership before the 12 Aug renewal. Cancellation needs
explicit user confirmation on the day.
## Scope
- In scope: reviews and spec tables for every telescope on the iTelescope network,
