<p>The other commenters make really good points about aiming your telescope. But supposing that your aiming is correct, there are some other things that could be going on:</p>
<ul>
<li>Planets are tiny. It takes something like Hubble to see Saturn like in Uhoh's post. Especially with small equipment like ours we will only see a tiny image. To make sure I am looking at the right thing I consult a star-chart and (Jupiter) look for the line of moons (Saturn) look for the oblong spot.</li>
<li>Your focus may be off. You may already know this but for ideal seeing I usually say that you want to adjust the focuser to make a bright star appear as small as possible. With most bright stars I can see lots of faint background stars when I get the focus right.</li>
<li>Something may be preventing you from getting a good focus. For me this has been things like a smudge on my lens, dew on my mirror, or (most commonly) bad collimation. Your mirrors/lenses need to be in a precise alignment to see details. If you have tried everything else a bit of a collimation check may be in order. How you go about that depends on your scope.

I agree, the only reasonable explanation I can think of for not being able to see Jupiter's moons would be if you are not actually looking at Jupiter.  Even if they were all behind Jupiter when you looked at it, they move so fast that if you look a couple of hours later )or the next night) some of them should be visible by then.

note that atmospheric conditions may well cause enough blurring and other problems that you can't see things in some place that in another place are quite visible. E.g. I live in a place with lots of light pollution, making for very bad conditions most nights.

Planets are very small objects, and if viewing conditions aren't good then it's difficult to see any detail. You should have been able to see Jupiter's moons, though - those show up in 8x binoculars. Use this [FoV calculator](http://astronomy.tools/calculators/field_of_view/) to get an idea of how small Jupiter will appear with your telescope and a 10mm eyepiece. You could get a 2x Barlow lens to increase the magnification. Also keep an eye on [the seeing](https://www.meteoblue.com/en/weather/outdoorsports/seeing/) - 1 arc/sec resolution or below is great, more than that is not great.

One of which might be if you have less than perfect vision and expected the images to be so big that it would overcome it. You'd need pretty good eyesight for these magnifications; what you expected to see would have been pretty easy for someone with good eyesight (perhaps wearing their glasses if necessary when looking through a telescope) but when you say they look similar to how normal stars look, if your vision has problems then maybe what stars look like to you is already larger than how planets would look through your telescope!

# Planets looks like normal stars when I see them using telescope

(Asked by: username_0 on 2022-06-10)

I've been trying to see planets using my 114 mm (aperture) f=900 mm telescope. For the moon, I got very good quality pictures, but when I try to see planets they just appear to be as if I'm looking at a star with my naked eye; it's just a point of light.

I tried looking at Saturn, and it appeared the same. I couldn't even get a light blur or suggestion of its rings.

I tried looking at Jupiter which is quite bright with the naked eye, but couldn't see any of its moons and neither got any indication of its disk. It's like as if I'm looking at it with the naked eye only.

I used both a 25 mm and 10 mm eyepiece, but both went in vain.

I used the Stellarium app to make sure I'm pointing at correct object.

With f=900 mm and a 25 and 10 mm eyepieces you would be viewing at 36x and 72x.

36x is a very reasonable magnification under any condition, and 72x can probably still be considered "useful magnification" at least under good conditions.

I don't have particularly good eyesight but I can assure you that in my 8x42 binoculars (only 8x magnification, 42 mm aperture) I can resolve all four Galilean moons of Jupiter (if they're far enough away) and the two little bumps on the side of Saturn where its rings extend.

I last did this last summer when they were at opposition.

Now, here's some potential kickers; sometimes Galilean moons may be very hard to resolve because they are behind Jupiter, or in its shadow (eclipsed) or simply too close to Jupiter's bright disk (or occasionally eclipsing each other!)

* [When will the next series of mutual eclipses of Jupiter's moons begin?](https://astronomy.stackexchange.com/q/23477/7982)

And sometimes Saturn's rings are so close to edge-on that they are difficult to see.

If you have the date and time that you looked at Jupiter it should be pretty easy to find a website or ephemeris that shows how far the Galilean moons were from Jupiter to see if you just chose an unfortunate time to look.

But for Saturn you really really should have been able to clearly resolve those rings. Here is a set of simulated images of the planet at each time Saturn is at opposition, meaning that it's a bit closer than average and up most of the night. It shows the slowly rotating pattern varying with Saturn's orbital period of about 29.6 years; the last image is almost the same as the first image.

If you looked in 2022 with the instrument and eyepiece you describe, you certainly should have seen Saturn's rings.
