Zelda,
There's one small thing that affects the quality of the "view."
That is, the temperature of the mirrors.
The images get better as the temp reduces.
This usually takes ~ 30 to 60 mins or so. (Depends on size & type of t'scope.)
If poss. set the telescope up & wait till it has a chance to cool down.
You'll notice the difference.

Good luck with 47 Tuc.
