Aligning the scope (Nexstar 4SE)
Glimpse111 replied to Jupiters's topic in Getting Started Equipment Help and Advice
I used to align with 3 stars and never had an issue. Make sure you set it on tracking once it is aligned otherwise moon will walk away -
I think its just the focus you need to improve. How you are trying to focus?

then close your eyes and go ahead you will be fine. It is a good combination so you are not starting with anything bad.

sturdy mount is always ideal so I would say start with HEQ5 but I have seen people achieving results with Alt-Az mounts as well so NEQ5 is a good way to start

Its not ideal but will do the job

Celestron Skymaster 15x70 or 25x70
Glimpse111 replied to Mr niall's topic in Discussions - Binoculars
I have had both 15x70 and 25x70. I love 15x70 because it has a wide view and easy to hold. 25x70 is very narrow and havier than 15x70. I would go for 15x70 without giving it a second thought -

Good book?
Glimpse111 replied to AmatuerStargazer's topic in Getting Started Equipment Help and Advice
Try your local library and flick through pages and get the one which you feel is simple. Turn left at Orion is a good book and quite popular as well because its easy to understand. -
