The booking grid (Reservation/Overview.aspx embeds the DayPilot events)
shows astrosharp holding T59 from 03:50 to 04:40 SSO local on 20 Jul, i.e.
17:50-19:40 UTC on 19 Jul, which collided with the original 15:33 UTC
walk-in start. The run is rescheduled to start ~14:15 UTC (parallel with
the free T33 test, different scope) so it completes by 17:45 UTC, with a
trim-or-skip rule if the start slips. The grid also confirms a 25% moon
discount in effect, so the cost estimate drops from ~240 to ~185 points;
ledger updated. Times in the embedded grid are per-observatory local time
(verified against Utah sunset and the first-quarter moon note).
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.
