To capture the objects I shoot in the night's sky, I leverage an array of premium CCD imaging platforms and professional grade telescopes

Save yourself tens of thousands of dollars by sharing a network of remote, internet controlled telescopes. Image on our variety of online research grade telescopes. Located under dark and clean skies, iTelescope will enable you to produce images like a professional.

You fully control the telescopes with total ownership of data and the freedom to choose your own targets at any time for your personal astronomy goals.

All of the iTelescope.net systems are highly tuned and maintained to give you a professional and painless imaging experience. Then you can work your own magic on the raw data to produce that masterpiece or confirm that discovery!
