My first post here. My name is Lucas and I live in Tampa,
Thing is I got a decent telescope as gift from my wife and after a handful uses I think I have an OK aiming and focus ability, even with difficulty.
Now, there's this star that has been making me curious for a while as it is very shiny. I got a skymap
Now today I setup the telescope at my driveway and aimed at it. Then I amplified and then I focused .. and for my total surprise it seems cut in half! See the bottom half of it very clearly, nor blurry or anything and the top half seems missing.
I'm thinking it is a common beginner's mistake.
Please tell me!
Many Thanks
Lucas
