Need help

[Batman301982]

I have a Europa 150, can anyone tell me if this is a good telescope for seeing planets and stars, I was told when I brought it it was a good one for what I want it for, but tonight I tried to see Jupiter and it was poor.

Have you tried refocusing or using a bigger fielded lense

[Batman301982]

I'll try that thankyou, so is it a good telescope?

[DommyDevil18]

Its very good a friend of mine has it and she uses it to look at Mars

[Batman301982]

Excellent thankyou very much your feedback has been very useful.

I don't have a Europa 150 but I do have a similar sized SW 150.

Views of Jupiter very much depend on atmospheric conditions and can vary minute by minute.

Some nights can be fantastic, and other nights are not worth bothering with.

Enjoy your decent telescope.

Cheers rich, I guess last night wasn't a good night to see Jupiter although the skies where I live we're so clear.
