I found a site that lets you use remote telescopes to take astonomical photos using their big scopes. these are scopes that cost 100's ok thousands of dollars each. The scopes are actually located in new mexico.
Its not cheap but i thought Id give it a try.
heres the first result Ive gotten. its M104,the sombrero galaxy
it is 29million light years from earth
