I purchased a Tasco telescope recently,putting it together was the easy part,i just wanted to know what lens i put in the scope to view the moon?The telescope came with a HM25mm,H12.5,SR4mm eyepieces,and i already know the Erecting eyepiece is for horizontal viewing,and the Barlow lens i think is for making the eyepieces more "powerfull".I just don't know what to use and how to put them in the scope.Maybe if you had a diagram or something it would really help.Thank You
-   we have assembled the scope and for some reason we cannot view anything during the night, the sky is clear just don't know which lens to use, H, 25mm or the other, can you help us please, my 4year old is very interested in seeing the moon, and the space station the very bright looking star.
The moon is big so use the 25mm. The Barlow will have a multiplication marking on it 2x 3x etc. A 2x Barlow lens will effectively double the power of the eyepiece you are using. Do not use the erecting eyepiece for anything other than land viewing. Erecting eyepieces generally reduce the amount of light reaching your eye and thus reduce brightness of the faint objects in the sky. So basically just place the 25 mm lens in the focuser and point the scope at the moon and you will be amazed at what you can see and how bright it is.

I am a beginner, and I no longer have a manual. My telescope is a model type 78-4678, 900 mm focus length, 4.5 inch objective lens. I am unable to get any images with my telescope, regardless of which lens I use, and despite making my attempts in an area with little light interference. Basically, I am failing miserably at using this item, and would appreciate a step by step breakdown on precisely what to do.
