Stevo,

You'll also be able to see in the window of the house down the road

Seriously though, you'll see more if you can get to dark observing sites.

I started with a 4.25" reflector I made on a wobbly mount that i also made, and I saw heaps and I didn't know where things where in the sky (I still don't ) and in light polluted sky.

Don't let any poor observing put you off this great hobby. Just wait until you see thru a better scope

Then you will certainly be hooked. Many people give up after poor viewing thru cheap scopes coz they think that is all they will see. The image they see doesn't match the pretty pictures on the box!!!!
