If big telescopes and outer space are your thing, you may be interested in this trial offer from Global-Rent-A-Scope (GRAS). You can take control of a ground-based, Hubble-like remote imaging telescope that is located in Australia and create your own images.
Designed for ease of operation, even a child with little or no previous experience can take command of the controls of this ground-based remote astronomical telescope system. All GRAS remote telescope systems operate in a very similar concept to the Hubble space telescope, with the notable exception that these system are ground based.
Not only can you view the stars through these high powered telescopes, you can also record the images and download them to your computer.
Here’s a YouTube video that shows you what you’ll be controlling. The free time is an introductory offer for 60 points which can be converted into viewing time.
After your free time is complete, you can sign up for plans offered starting at $ 49.95 per month which will give you about 1.2 hours of monthly viewing time.
