Bought my first telescope /eyepiece and this is what I see when I look through

It’s an Orion Skyquest xt6 and Svbony sv245, both bought off Facebook marketplace and when I look at Jupiter this is what I see, how can I fix this? Also am I just seeing the secondary mirror overlapping Jupiter? Anything helps thank you!

Celestron Omni xlt 120 setup questions

I got this from a neighbor who’s husband passed away. She knew nothing about it or if it’s setup correctly. I tried researching this model online but didn’t find anything on setting it up. Does this look assembled correctly? Are two finders normal? And there is nothing on the big tube. What is it missing?

Advice for a small camping mount

Hello everyone, I'm writing from Italy. Congratulations on your community, it's so active and dynamic. I'd like some advice; next month I'm going camping alone with my 5-year-old son. He's passionate about the stars, and I think it's time for his first experience with a small telescope (binoculars are a bit heavy for him). I have a small, mountless Celestron 50mm travel scope at home. I'd like to find something easy to assemble but that doesn't vibrate too much (vibrations are so annoying). What advice could you give me?

The weather is finally starting to clear up after a cloudy, rainy season in Zimbabwe. Here are a few images I've taken with my Seestar S50, which I am controlling from my home in Miami, FL. The first image is a region in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The main nebula on the right is the Tarantula Nebula NGC 2070. The second is the Jewel Box open cluster NGC 4755. I'm using the S50 in Alt Az mode. 10 second exposures. No external processing on these images.

Do you know what is it called ? I want to buy this. It’s a part of TOWA telescope which locks its orientation . The tightening screw is broken inside, so I want to get new

Hey, I'm a physics student and for a project I have to observe Jupiter's satellites (Io mainly). I live in France and I need to know when it is the best time to observe them.
