LightBuckets
LightBuckets is a commercial astronomical observatory formerly located in Rodeo, New Mexico and now located in France, which rents time on its telescopes to customers around the world via a website on the Internet, including amateur and professional astronomers. It is an online astronomy platform with live-views,〔 and hosts an image gallery of astronomy images.〔 Recognized scientific uses include the confirmation of supernova and discovery of asteroids.〔〔
==Description==
LightBuckets was founded in 2007 by Steve Cullen, a former software executive, and the observatories became active on June 12, 2008.〔(Home Chesmont Astronomical Society )〕 In 2011, he returned to the software business, and LightBuckets went through a period of change.〔
Time on the telescopes is sold either by a subscription or pay as you go. The cost of using one of the telescopes in its global network varies depending on the model. Compared to its contemporaries, LightBuckets allows new images of the sky to be observed, as opposed to Microsoft WorldWide Telescope or Google Sky, which use stored images. It is more similar to Slooh, which also allows live-views from telescopes located in places such as Chile and Spain.〔( Cassie Rodenberg, "The Best in Armchair Astronomy", Popular Mechanics (March 22, 2010) - Accessed October 2010 )〕
