    The polar alignment process has been driving me nuts with my telescope lol, and now i'm fairly sure that it's the telescope's fault - I think my declination scale is incorrectly positioned. My manual says position it at 90 degrees but I think it should be more like 10/11 based on the scale, is this wrong? i.imgur.com/C0NVgKi.jpeg

    What do I do if everything looks like it’s all upside down? I have a celestron powerseeker 127 EQ and when I set it all up everything is inverted. I tried looking at a far away house and the roof was on the bottom and the windows were on top. I don’t know what I did wrong

  • @MSG-zo3mt

    Great video! At 12:03 the tube rings screws were not fully tighten. What was the reason?

    • @astrotourguide
      @astrotourguide Год назад

      You just need to tighten them enough that it doesn’t slide around on you, not all the way super tight. If you over-tighten them, it can bend the telescope tube. But by leaving them just tight enough to hold it in place, you can slide it around if you need to move the position of the eyepiece when you’re out viewing.

    I live in Costa Rica and my apartment has a South view so I can't see the north star. How can I polar align it?

    • @astrotourguide
      @astrotourguide Год назад

      Look up your “magnetic deviation” for your location. Then you can use a compass to find magnetic north and then offset by the approximate degrees of deviation for your area. Then set the height based on your degrees of latitude. That’ll get you close enough for visual observing.

  • @ronmac1832
    @ronmac1832 Год назад

    Very helpful! Question: If my mount is level, set to true north and altitude adjustment is properly set - would that be good enough for visual observations? I'll try both methods as soon as the clouds clear up!

    • @astrotourguide
      @astrotourguide Год назад

      Yes. If you’re just doing visual, just getting it level pointed to true north with the proper elevation set will be pretty good. You might occasionally have to adjust the declination knob as something drifts if it’s a little off. Whereas if it’s spot on you only have to turn the RA slow motion knob. But for most of the time, it’ll be fine. Once you do a full alignment on the North Star the first time, you’ll have the exact elevation set. From then on you can just set up and point to true north and you’re in business.

  • @rexnemo

    Thank you , I just got the Stellarium app and I'm excited to be able to do some stargazing ! Update , I managed to see Jupiter and its moons , the Stellarium ap helped me to confirm it was Jupiter from the position of the moons , it's a great app!, Mars , Betelgeuse , and the Orion nebula with many stars contained in it . What I think is incredible is how easily it is possible to look at stars with the naked eye as opposed to how delicate the operation of finding them with the telescope and how quickly they move away from the centre of the scope .
