Hold a slot

40 ₾ per 20 min

Only the hours when the sky is dark over Tbilisi, Georgia and the operator is taking work are shown. Tbilisi One is still being commissioned, so a held slot is a place in the queue rather than a confirmed session — you will be told before anything is charged.

Working out when the sky is dark over the site…

  1. See what it would show you

    The simulator drives this same optical train — the field of view above, the real slew times, and the same safety envelope that will refuse a target too low or too close to the Sun.

    Open the simulator
  2. Not awake at three in the morning?

    Ask for the object instead of the hour. Name what you want photographed and how long you will wait, and the instrument works your request on the first night the sky allows it — between the sessions people booked to drive themselves.
