## Rate card (2026-07-18, points per imaging hour, billed per minute)
Extracted from MyAccount/UpdatePlan.aspx: each scope row carries
data-default-rate (dark-of-moon base); effective rate = base x (1 -
AccessDiscount from DataService GetMyAvailablePlans) x (1 - moon discount,
server-side table keyed on illumination, not extracted yet). Plan-40 discount
is 10% on most scopes, 20% on a few, 0% on the newest (T25, T26, T73, T74).
Plan-40 rates before moon discount: T2 50, T5 68, T8 130, T10 146, T11 161,
T14 97, T17 135, T18 81, T20 89, T21 76, T24 186, T25 322, T26 394, T30 161,
T32 146, T33 0 (free), T59 80, T68 0 (free), T70 119, T71 106, T72 202,
T73 224, T74 295, T75 202, T80 119.
Standouts: T59 at 80/hr is the value big scope (20" CDK, square 37 arcmin
field, 900 s subs); T5 at 68/hr the cheapest paid; T26 at 394/hr the dearest.
Billing is per minute of imaging (exposure) time, so overhead is not billed.
Paid imaging needs no reservation when a scope is idle: same walk-in ACP flow
as the free scopes, points just deduct. Reservations (to guarantee a slot) go
through lookup.itelescope.online, which is Cloudflare-protected: Playwright
