Telescience is already pretty easy to operate - utilities just help expedite the process. The guide on the wiki tells it all - it's just algebra. I seriously do not see what's so extraordinary difficult about calculating two equations and plugging some numbers in, even if you don't consider yourself a math person.
Also, from what I've seen, no one has really taken the initiative, aside from a couple telescientists themselves who ask for people to join their expeditions (and often don't receive many responses). At least for me, if I were a scientist, I'd be absolutely happy to drop you off some place and let you explore. Or even explain step by step how to calculate offsets and coordinates. It's just that people rarely ask in game. Even if you've been refused once or twice, it really doesn't hurt to ask again. Lots of people are perfectly nice and willing to help others with these things.
