I need to access and download a catalog of stars from a remote server for my thesis work from outside my university. The server that holds the data (let's call it target) can only be accessed from outside the university's internet through another server (say, bouncer) that acts as a firewall. I must go through bouncer to get to target and the data.

I have no space allocated to my account in bouncer, so I cannot transfer files from target to it and then to my computer. The only way would be to, somehow, I think, make it so the transfer (I'm using the scp command on wsl2) goes from target, through bouncer, and directly to my computer, without messing with the not existing space.

So, is it possible to remotely download from a server only accessible through a second server? It is possible for me to ask for access to a VPN (which I have no idea how it would go), but the process takes at least a week, and that's a week I could be working.

Edit: I'm currently running Windows 11 Home and the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
