Hi Adam.
Welcome to IceInSpace

If the scope you have is a Skywatcher, (and this happens regularly with these) please make sure you do not have Both the 1.25" adapter AND the 2" adapter in the focuser together.


If that's not the problem, then a bit more info is needed.
Scope type and size.
Eyepiece being used.
Target being viewed.
Anything else in the focus train (eg barlow, filter,)

Generally, the planets will actually look like fuzz balls if you try to magnify them too much, especially if low in the sky, and/or atmospheric conditions are messy.

Hope we can help
