Stolen: A
StarMaster 30" telescope w/ an Argo Navis DSC and a White 17'
Haulmark "V" nose, tandem wheel trailer which has a ramp rear
door and a 36" side door on the right. Items were taken from my
residence in Albuquerque, New Mexico in the early morning on Thursday,
13 November, 2003. Also included in the trailer was a Craftsman brand
tool cabinet that contained hand tools of approximately $1500 value, and
two 10 ft Tripod ladders (Louisville red fiberglass and Tallman
aluminum).
Any information on the whereabouts of these items would be greatly appreciated. Please contact the Albuquerque Police Department. In addition, the owner, Brock Parker can be reached at starbadger203@yahoo.com (the phone # that I had for him is now disconnected), or Additional Contact: Sammy Lockwood (505) 275-0258 or E-mail brock@samlockwood.com
Brock has registered his loss with Starmaster, Argo Navis, and several other astronomically related sites. Our theory is that crack-heads or similar low-life's stole the trailer without knowing it's contents, and will likely either trash it's unusual contents, or hopefully, try to sell it. Apparently, his insurance will not cover this loss.
Obviously, the only hope to reclaim this scope is to get the word out as far and wide as possible. There are only 6 scopes like this in existence, so maybe we'll get lucky. I would ask that you forward this note to any/all astronomical listservs, and bbs's, and if possible, link to this page < http://www.taas.org/stolen_starmaster/ >
If there is any good news here, it's that his 18" dob, and his eyepiece case was not in the trailer.
I'll post updates on this as I get them. Please feel free to use any images or info on this site as needed to help.
