Is Remote Desktop Secure?

I would like to use Remote Desktop with a wireless public router, but
I am concerned that someone will be able to intercept my username,
password, or capture screenshots of my desktop. Can someone tell me
if Remote Desktop is secure even if there is no security between the
wireless nic and the router? Thanks in advance.
