I want to see just how small we are as a species before I return( as dust) to our beautiful planet. I recently purchased my first telescope, after finally saving enough money but a feared I’ve jumped the gun. With limited funds I purchased an Explore One Gemini II 70 mm refractor. I see the moon perfectly but Saturn and Jupiter are just bright spheres in the lens. I was so disappointed because I just couldn’t wait for the emotional awakening I was anticipating. I have (1) PL26mm and (1) 9.7mm eyepieces. Have I purchased a POS or operator error? Any recommendations on a better scope is appreciated. Thank you
