When I watch TV serial The New Professional CI5 I amused a lot when I saw using a small Newtonian.
You can learn a lot, how professional use the telescope :-))

How to use Newtonian telescope:
1, Aim the scope with collimation nuts directing to the observed object
2, Stand up towards the open hole in tube (you should see your face in the mirror)
3, Look through the objective lens of the viewfinder
4, You should see the object far away from you, because telescope is an equipment which magnifies the object distance ;-))
