Hey Everyone,
Finally got myself a cheap telescope to get started. I've followed the instructions and set it up, but after inserting the Eyepiece, and then a lense. I see nothing. Just blackness.
I bought this

When I look into the telescope, with no eyepiece I see a reflection of my eye, sorrounded by a larger mirror.
When I put in the Erecting Eyepiece, I see the same thing but blurred if I try and look through it closely.
Then I had a H20mm lens into that eyepiece, and now I see nothing.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I think at one stage I checked that the screws on the telescope were tight, and very slightly tightened one of the screws relating to the small mirror. So not sure if its out of alignment at all ?
Any help much appreciated, I'm a complete amateur here, thought this was gonna be strait forward and was so excited, but had it for a week now and still havn't looked at anything
