First time outside and it was really fun!
As you can see, the place I stood at wasn't perfekt at all, but I still managed to see some stars. A lot of mosquitos held me company, and three - that I know of, followed me inside.
My neighbour stopped for a chat, and a passer by stopped for a chatt. My telescope draws attention! :)
I still haven't collimated the mirrors, but some how it felt ok anyway. Perhaps they did that when they checked the telescope for damages after the rough trip from abroad. I haven't polar aligned it either, but since I was just out to look through it, that didn't matter. It's when I start looking for objects in the sky and follow them in the telescope that this is important, I think.
I've looked at some more youtube videos on how to use the telescope, 20 top astronomy tips, how to operate it and such videos.
