New Club Scope! (Members can use!) January 9, 2012
Posted by Denise in : Events , add a commentThanks to a generous donation, our club has a new telescope for use by club members: a Meade LX10 8″ Schmidt-Cassegrain on a fork equatorial mounting (non-computerized. Seems hard to believe that they actually used to make them that way!) If anyone would like to see this telescope, come to an observing session. If a club member would like to use this telescope, call club president Dan Bastemeyer.
