They are essentialy publishing a application that you allow to run localy on your system to broadcast. You could even have multiple cameras and switch between the ones you wanted to display. I have seen Rock do this during his broadcasts. He has one camera showing the inside of his observatory and another attached to the Telescope.
Yes Fahim, you are right.

NightSkiesNetwork uses a program called 'whispers' or something similar, which is Flash.

I also use 2 cams. One in the scope and one to show folks my gear, and I just switch between the 2 as needed.
