Your First Night
Out: The Moon
The best and easiest target for you to try to view
fi rst is the Moon. Try observing the Moon at different
points in its phase cycle. The best time to view the
Moon is from two days after a New Moon up to a few
days before a Full Moon. During this period, you will
be able to see the most detail in the craters and lunar
mountain ranges.

Look through the fi nderscope and locate the red-
dot. Continue moving the telescope until the red dot
appears over the Moon.

You can view many other celestial objects, such as
planets, star clusters and nebulae using this same
technique if you know where to fi nd them in the
night sky.

With the Moon visible in the sky, set up your
telescope as described above with the 25mm
eyepiece installed.

Look through the telescope's 25mm eyepiece.
Gently turn the focus knobs to adjust the sharpness
of the image.

CONGRATULATIONS!
YOU HAVE NOW OBSERVED YOUR
FIRST CELESTIAL OBJECT!
To get a closer view of the Moon, loosen the set
screws on the focuser and remove the 25mm
eyepiece. Replace it with your 9mm eyepiece and
tighten the set screws to secure it in place. The
9mm eyepiece will give you signifi cantly more
magnifi cation, making the Moon appear much larger.
NOTE: To make sure you are getting the sharpest
image possible, you may need to adjust the focus
knobs when you change eyepieces.
