Saw Jupiter for the first time with just binoculars!

Couldn’t believe how bright it looked - and I think I saw some moons too!
Excited to keep exploring the sky, any tips on what to look for next?

Caught Saturn's rings clearly tonight
I’ve been stargazing for a few months now, but tonight was my first time seeing Saturn’s rings so clearly through my telescope. It honestly took my breath away.
Do they always appear this visible, or was it just perfect weather conditions?

Can’t get my telescope to focus, what am I doing wrong?
I just got my first telescope (a SkyWatcher 130/900) and tried pointing it at the Moon last night.
I could see light, but everything looked blurry, no matter how much I adjusted the focus knob.
Do I need an extra eyepiece? Or am I missing something basic?
