You will see that all the stars are cut off on the left side, and the main star
has a halo on the left side, so either there is a physical obstacle in the light path, or more likely collimation problem. Lasers are not the best collimation tool unless it is ascertained that the laser itself is properly collimated. Spin your laser collimator on its own axis and see if the laser beam stays trained on its target. Most cheaper laser collimators have no means of adjustment. Try again with a basic collimator.
