I get that a lot too. Even when it's right there staring you in the face, most people just cannot see it! (puzzling. I'm sure I missed it too in the beginning though.) OTOH, once I was at a local park with the scope and a mum and her two daughters came by for a look. The older girl could not have been more than 8, and on the first look at Jupiter she went WoW! and all excited that she could see the red spot. She insisted her younger sister look but the lil one was too scared of the big telescope, and probably its scary owner too
