Reply to comment by Dangerous-Kitchen149 in Hey guys! Im 30, and for the first time in my life I’ve sparked an interest in space and bought a telescope. What should I look for? And also can someone explain star link to me? Thanks in advance! by Dangerous-Kitchen149

The apps work fine if your phone has a build-in GPS. You could also just buy a book.

The planets change positions, so you can look up online when they are visible.

Awesome I’ll try it. Thanks. I took it outside and I’ve been staring at the sun for about 3 hours. Nothing interesting yet I’ll report back when something cool happens.
