The moon was out during the day today, and it was very clear in the sky, but no matter how hard I tried I couldn't see it in the eyepiece of my Celestron PowerSeeker60, until half an hour of scanning and panning around the skies - I eventually found it by accident.
I'm not sure how I can get my finderscope to work that is, I managed to locate it in my finderscope (even though the image is upside down and mirrored) but when the moon was centered in my finderscope - it was nowhere to be seen in my telescope!? How do I set it up so it actually does the "find" part of "finderscope"?
Another quick question - is there a lense that I can get for this telescope which is a very minimal amount of magnification, so that I can look at objects through my telescope and have it act as maybe a bit stronger than a finderscope?
Thanks in advance - Jon.
