A very interesting idea Lance. I like your thoughts regarding the building of the Obs with shipping containers.

Costs may also be cheaper as well depending on the number of people who would like to buy a share in it. One problem I see and I may be wrong is as Australia is a vast island I just cant see people travelling a long way for a few nights viewing for example Perth to Coonabarabran is approx 4500km.
I couldn't see a lot of people wanting to invest in a scope they may only see through once every couple of years. This is easily overcome with remote imaging and no doubt there would be free time to members, but it's not the same as being there to see how your dollars are faring.

Cheers
