> thinking (in my naivety) that all US dwellings would have way more space than the terraced house I was living in

As you've no doubt discovered, this highly depends on where you live. In a major US city? You're going to pay a premium for yard space. In rural Tennessee? Not so much.

Oh $deity yes, I was rapidly disabused of the notion, given I was living in San Jose or Cupertino, or Mountain View, … or anywhere in reasonable traveling time to the Apple campus, really.

Going to buy a place by the beach in the UK, with a little (half acre or so) land, and plenty of space (for Space :) now that I’m retiring. I have an interest in optical astrophotography too, so as low a Bortle sky as I can finagle given the other constraints (school proximity, wife’s opinion, …)

Perhaps an opportunity for more models like remote colocation of equipment, either for profit or non profit.

Thanks. I have a few remote sites on my list for where to go eventually, but I’d not come across this one.
