Yearly Membership Cards for Research
At Telescope Live, we are committed to aiding and enhancing astronomical research.
While our platform primarily serves astrophotographers, it was built by astronomy researchers, for astronomers.
That’s why we've crafted a special offer for researchers, PhD students, or members of a Telescope Live partner citizen-science group:
A Yearly Membership Card at a 25% discount!
The Yearly Membership Cards are perfect for following up on exoplanets or supernovae.
With this card, you receive access to our platform for a year, regardless of whether you choose the Bronze, Silver, or Gold tier.
These tiers give you 60, 240, or 600 credits respectively.
The credits allow you to dive deep into our extensive astrophotography data, offering insights and details that can significantly enhance your research.
Alternatively, you can use the credits to task our high-end telescopes located in pristine sites around the world. Follow up on exoplanets or supernovae, or conduct sky surveys; the choice is yours.
How many credits do I need?

One-Click Observation
A typical One-Click Observation costs 1 credit and corresponds to 1 hour of observations, with a One-Click you can create a nice picture.

Observation Bundle
An Observation Bundle costs around 10 credits and corresponds to 10 hours of observations. With a bundle you can create a truly stunning image!

Advanced Request
If you need to use our telescopes exclusively, you will need to submit an Advanced Request and you will need more credits. 1 hour of telescope time ranges from 75 to 130 credits, although this vastly depends on the telescope used and moon discounts - which can significantly drop the cost of the observation.
