This evening I finally got to use my Skywatcher Heritage 130p which I bought 2 weeks ago due to rain and clouds since. I must admit I was slightly disappointed, sadly there was no moon at all but plenty of stars. I must admit I don't know much about astronomy yet as still learning but have a feeling I did a classic mistake which was 'point it at the star and see' though all I could see was a closer White dot.
I'm still going to read and learn more but any tips really would be great. I wasn't expecting NASA quality pictures and I know my scope is a starter scope, just hoped for more. Again any tips or what I should be focusing on would be great, I'm pretty gutted the moon didn't make any appearance.
Thanks all in advance, remember I am a newbie.
