Astronomical focussing difficulty

Recently I bought a canon 1100D. It takes beautiful terrestrial photos.
However, when I tried to use it last night (our first night with no cloud or even no pouring rain in the last 2 weeks) I could not get it to focus on Scorpio. It seems that the focussing system is not geared to astronomical photography. Could someone here point me to what I need to do to convince the 1100D to focus for astronomy?
