Idiocracy!

You can buy a small "smart telescope", point it at roughly at Andromeda, an get images on your phone. What's the point of the "smart telescope"? Just google it if you want a pic on your phone.

Thanks for your share! Please try to make Jupiter photo as currently visible well on the N sky

@ps My previous attempt at Jupiter was a streak. My hands aren't THAT steady!

Try to lean against something and breathe out. Sharpshooters even try to account for their heartbeat, which is visible as lens movement at high magnification

I used to be able to see the moons, or at least their inclination with a naked eye. Now I have astigmatism and everything looks like it has moons.

Moon through a telescope — It's pretty hard to shoot through the eyepiece without a mount, but I did my best.
