3. Note If objects high in the sky are distorted or wavy you are probably viewing on a very humid night During nights of unstable atmosphere viewing through a telescope can be frustrating if not impossible Astronomers refer to crisp cle ar nights as nights of good seeing Sudden changes of temperature If possible you should avoid to take your telescope from the cold outside temperature into the room tempera ture This will cover the lenses with condensed moisture a condition that has to be corrected immediately To do this place the lens at a safe distance from a source of heat and increase the heating slowly until the moi sture disappears If any stains are left on the lenses these have to be removed after the lenses are fully dried In cold weather the telescope should be placed outdoors at least one and a half hours before you want to use it
4. until crosshairs of finderscope are precisely centered on the same object already centered in main telescope tube s field of view 3 Now objects located first with Finderscope 1 will also be centered in the field of view of the Main Telescope Tube 14 Never Look Direct At The Sun With Your Telescope Permanent Damage To Your Eyes May Result Enjoying Your New Telescope 1 First determine your targeted object Any bright object in the night sky is a good starting point One of the favorite starting points in astronomy is the moon This is an object sure to please any budding astronomer or experiericed veteran When you have developed proficiency at this level other objects become good targets Saturn Mars Jupiter and Venus are good second steps to take 2 The first thing you need to do after assembling the telescope as planned is center the desired object in the fin derscope cross hairs Provided you did a reasonable job aligning the finderscope a quick look through the main telescope tube at low power should reveal the same image With the lowest power eyepiece the one with the largest number printed on it you should be able to focus the same image that you saw through the finderscope Avoid the temptation to move directly to the highest power The low power eyepiece will give you wider field of view and bright image thus making it very easy to find your target object At this point with a focused image in both scopes you ve pa

7. our sky is that the earth is rotating about its axis As a result you may notice that after a few minutes or a few seconds depending on what power you are viewing at the objects in your telescope will move At higher magnifications especially you will notice that the moon or Jupiter will race right out of the field of view To compensate just move the fine adjustment controls on your telescope to track it in the necessary path Helpfull Hints 1 Your telescope is a very sensitive instrument For best results and fewer vibrations set your telescope up ona level location on the ground rather than your concrete driveway or your wooden desk This will provide a more stable foundation for viewing especially if you ve drawn a crowd with your new telescope If possible view from a location that has relatively few lights This will allow you to see much fainter objects You d be surprised how much more you ll see from your local lake or park when compared to a backyard in the city Using your telescope out a window is NEVER recommended View objects that are high in the sky if possible Waiting until the object rises well above the horizon will provi de a brighter and crisper image Objects on the horizon are viewed through several layers of earth s atmosphere Ever wonder why the moon appears orange as it sets on the horizon It s because you are looking through a considerable more amount of atmosphere than you would directly overhead
8. ssed the first obstacle If you don t see an image after attempting to focus it in you might consider aligning your finderscope again Once you pass this step you ll enjoy the time spent ensuring a good alignment Every object you center in the finderscope will be easily found in the main telescope tube which is important for continuing your exploration of the night sky 3 The low power eyepieces are perfect for viewing the full moon planets star clusters nebulae and even co stellations These should build your foundation However for more detail try bumping up in magnificati on to higher power eyepieces on some of these objects During calm and crisp nights the light dark separation lir on the moon called the Terminator is marvelous at high power You can see mountains ridges and craters jump out at you due to the highlights Similarly you can move up to higher magnifications on the planets and nebulae Star clusters and stars are best viewed through the lower power no matter what 5 4 The recurring astronomical theater we call the night sky is an ever changing billboard In other words not the same movie plays all the time Rather the positions of the stars change not only hourly as they seem to rise and set but also throughout the year As the earth orbits the sun our perspective on the stars changes on a yearly cycle about that orbit The reason the sky seems to move daily just as the sun and the moon move across
