T68 -->New Mexico

[PMSchu]

Hi Greg,

It seems that iTelescope T68 has been moved from Australia to New Mexico, but I can't find more info on its status. I wondered if you had more information on its status, since its right down the road from you and you're also an iTelescope user. 

Thanks,

Hi Phil,

I haven't heard anything yet either. The only inside info I get is that I can walk outside and look at the weather!

Hi Greg,

I did get a reply from Dr. Sasse of iTelescope.net about T68. It seems that they're still working on getting it up and running.

Here's his response:

Hi Phil,
 
good to hear from you. We have to commission T68 in NMS in the next weeks, it is on our list. Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
Thank you,
 
Best wishes,

It looks like T68 would do a good job imaging Comet Borisov too!
