Laurence 512cdd3074 Campaign plan files for every queued session
The eight ACP plans backing the drain-campaign booking queue: cena-t32
(Centaurus A LRGB), cra-t8 (Corona Australis dust), catspaw-t8 (NGC 6334
Ha, booked as 749230), smc47tuc-t8 (the SMC + 47 Tuc signature frame),
tarantula-t32 (NGC 2070 LRGB), ngc6188-haoiii-t59 and ngc6188-sii-t59
(bright-moon narrowband pair), scorpius-t70 (super-wide, pending the T70
server returning). All except scorpius-t70 are uploaded to their scopes
and verified byte-identical; keeping them in the repo lets any session
re-upload after scope-side maintenance wipes or for T71 substitution
re-cuts. Binning conventions: Bin1 L / Bin2 RGB on the CCD scopes (T8),
Bin2 throughout on T32 (camera is Bin2-only), Bin1 on modern CMOS (T70),
Bin1 narrowband on T59 with 600 s subs.

Reference and review of the iTelescope.net remote telescope network: every telescope, its specs, what it is good at, and which one to book for a given target.

  • TELESCOPES.md: the full review, grouped by observatory, with a "choosing a telescope" guide at the end.
  • TARGETS.md: southern-sky targets invisible from the UK, matched to scopes and to the time of year to book them.
  • data/itelescope-telescopes.csv: snapshot of the network's maintained specs sheet (source of truth for the numbers).
  • state/: project state under the Default Workflow.

Sources: the iTelescope support article (telescope summary) and the network's maintained Google Sheet. The launchpad at go.itelescope.net is login-only.
