I cannot see anything thru my telescope

  1. Get Stellarium or another fine astronomy program
  2. During the day, point the telescope at a part of the landscape about 100 yards away.
  3. Use the lowest power eyepiece (highest number) in the focal tube.
  4. Center the landscape object in the telescope.
  5. Align the finder scope so that it points exactly where the main telescope is.
  6. At night, leave the scope out to reach thermal equilibrium (about an hour for small reflectors and refractors)
  7. If the scope is on a EQ mount, polar align.
  8. Point the finder at the moon. The moon should be in the main scope also.
  9. Practice finding the moon before you start on the planets
  10. Once you are comfortable with the moon and planets, you can go for the deep sky objects

Is the finderscope the same as the laser sight?

You will have one or the other, but not both. They do the same job but work in different ways. So, no, they are not the same, but they have the same purpose.

All astronomical telescopes show upside down images -- it is normal. Nothing is wrong with the telescope.

Bought a telescope for my son and lost the manual.

The manual WILL NOT tell you how to use it. It is ONLY assembly instructions.

Read my tips on my profile page, and locate a local Astronomy club to help you.

The protective cover is the front of the telescope. The focuser is on the front like the picture above. Turn the scope around, you have it pointing at the ground

I answered your question in your other posting.

SEE this and look at the picture of the Dobsonian reflector. Notice the eyepiece and focuser is on the FRONT of the telescope. The mirror is the BOTTOM of the telescope.

I have Tasco 4x16x40 scope. The crosshairs will not adjust or hold. What can I do to get this fixed.

It is impossible to see and movement as the crosshairs move such a tiny amount. Half a millimetre in the sight is 10 feet at the target. The only way to zero in sights is on a fixed bench rest at the range. If you really think they are faulty, return them to the maker for repair. Tasco do have a Warranty and Repair Service.
