Mr Perkins asked:
I recently bought a telescope and tried to see jupiter and mars; however, they just look like really small bright dots even at 180x magnification. Is this how they supposed to look?

One time I seen the space shuttle returning and I could see it through the telescope. Also I have seen Jupiter and it looked like it had monster truck tracks on it.

Would I be able to see any good images of the moon, jupiter, stars etc.
Also would anyone be able to tell me the aperture value of this telescope?
thanks.
What if I bought a 4mm glass lens. Would there be any point? Or a waste of money?
Thanks for your answers been great help.

universeishere asked:
I found this 8* magnification telesope in the market recently. It is a ‘ build yourself’ telescope,i.e., we get the material inside the pack and we have to construct the telescope ourselves. Also, on its cover, it was written that we can view the craters of moonplus jupiter and saturn. We would see everything like how Galileo saw. How powerful would that telescope be and is it preferable to buy it or should I search for a telescope with more magnification?

But of Course asked:
I would really like to see Saturn’s rings and cloud detail on Jupiter. If I could see Neptune too, that would be awesome.

I’d also like for it to be compatible with Microsoft’s WorldWide Telescope, and under $800.
Anybody know of one?
