Oh wow awesome SGL team members! Thank you all for your comments. I can't wait to see. Yes I'm not expecting to see what hubble telescope is :)...just something we as family can gaze at night and start venturing looking at objects.
This is what I have by the way:

Celestron 21038 Travel Scope 50 Telescope
I'm not sure if I can paste link here though if not please let me know. Ok I see, I'll adjust during the day using finderscope, Once that object is in middle of the crosshairs, then I can use that as a guide to see through the eyepiece. Does the finderscope give me like latitude/longitude, basically if I use the skyportal app and it tells me tonight there object at this location, how can I find it in the finderscope?
I was wondering any cool apps you use? I've got the skyportal app for free as I purchased this product.
Happy stargazing! Thank you all, stay safe.

Hi Everyone!
I hope all is well! This is my first forum website, first post and first telescope I purchased celestron scope 50.
I'm sorry for silly questions but here goes:
I have 2 eye piece lenses, 10 and 20mm at what objects can I take a look at this?
I also have a finderscope that comes with it attached, when i look at it it gives me like horizontal/vertical line like a cross. What's that for and what can i use the finderscope for exactly?
it also comes with this 3x barlow lens, when I just attach it its loose but thats normal I guess, but put eyepiece at end, does that mean i can see 3x magnification even more?
It comes with the skyportal app, I suppose this will tell me what time is good to look at outside?
Like I said, I'm sorry but if you have any thoughts, or links to answers within this forum much appreciated.
Stay safe thanks!
