Laurence ab184a7dcc Second free-session plan: NGC 6752 (Pavo globular)
plans/ngc6752.txt mirrors the 47 Tuc test recipe (L 4x120s, RGB 2x90s, Bin2,
~24 min all-in, inside the free daily 30 minutes) on NGC 6752 at RA 19.1811h
dec -59.9844: at RA ~19h it is well placed from mid-evening at Siding Spring
through the whole run window. Uploaded to T33's /plans/qisback/ and verified
byte-identical.

Scheduled for Sunday 2026-07-20 ~15:11 UK as an adaptive follow-up: if
Saturday's 47 Tuc first-light succeeded it images NGC 6752; if Saturday was
clouded out or the scope was contended, it retries the 47 Tuc test instead.
state/TODO.md records the dependency so whichever session fires can decide
from repo state alone.

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.
