Observing planets: optimising your views
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
Getting consistently good views of planets and other targets in the night sky can seem a bit hit and miss to the new telescope user. In this video we look at a couple of the most basic variables that can affect the resolution and detail seen in planetary observation. We also explain how and when to address the target to optimise image quality with any telescope.
