This Starport standard was given to us by Dennis Martin when, at the Oregon Star Party, he decided he needed to go big, or go home! Dennis felt he needed a 20″ Starmaster (see above)…. This 18″ NGT, f4.5 Newtonian, with a Pegasus mirror, and Feather Touch fine focuser is a late night staff favorite. It’s wide, sharp image provides outstanding view of all those faint fuzzies, like nebulae and galaxies, that only come to focus in a large scope. It’s usually one of the last scopes to be put away for the night.

Orion 10″ donated in memory of Adrian Erich Lehner. Adrian was a great guy who really enjoyed astronomy. He was active at the Mt Bachelor Star Party for many years, and we miss him very much. However, his scope is used almost every night we are open; I am sure he would of love that.

Yes, this telescope has no name attached to it, and is a demo here. But the staff would love for this to be a permanent home. So if you are interested, we would love to see a donation for this wonderful addition to the dob farm.
