The future of amateur astronomy is looking up, pardon the pun. You have
to remember the group your talking (which I'm a member too) is mainly
based in the US. one only has to look at their light polution chart to see
good dark skies over there are starting to get scarce.
If the hobby turns more to the well heeled, then ATM'ing will pick up again
most of todays market come from there.
