Remote Astronomy

Anyone know of any good websites that describe setting up your own
remote observatory. I'm disable and can't take my scope out without
help. Any suggestions is appreciated.

I would also suggest contacting astronomer Phil Platt, "The Bad
Astronomy" guy, he has a blog and lots of contacts. you can contact
hi via his blog.

Phil may have connections to the last URL listed above.

I have added sci.astro.amateur to the news group line, most serious
astro observing types hang out there...

You also might look to see if there is a local astronomy club you
might locate some helping hands.

I have had success using a free version of VNC (Virtual Networking
Computing), available from http://www.tightvnc.com/

You load it on your host computer. You may have to make router
changes to authorize access to specific ports on your host but there
is documention available to do this. Then, from any PC on the net,
you can access your host.

Many support groups use this as it allows complete control of the
remote PC.
