Yeah, there’s definitely a movement issue (plus being pics on my cellphone rather than a nicer camera), along with trickiness trying to get it ‘held’ on the planet(s) long enough to try and focus better to take a picture. I’m probably gonna buy like a 2x Barlow lens(?) to increase the magnification (I have a 10mm lens…

Yeah, I’d forgotten that I have access to Celestron’s downloadable software on PC cuz my telescope is one of theirs.

What do people recommend as the best Android equivalent for SkyView (since that appears to be iOS only)?

Yeah, 2016 began a friend of mine’s “celebripocalypse” hashtag that continues to this day.
