Overview
I have recently signed up for an account at Slooh, an observatory rental business with locations primarily in the Canary Islands, but with 1 scope also in Chile for viewing southern skies. I'll try to review the service here, as well as gather some of the better images I get. Since I live in Cincinnati the weather is often bad and the light pollution is always bad. I would really love to set up my own dedicated scope, and really would if I had decent seeing here. In fact I've considered several options, but anything within a reasonable distance to me also has these problems, and the place I would love to be Deep Sky West is more expensive than I can currently justify. But maybe someday. In the meantime Sloohlets me indulge my inters at a reasonable cost.
