Try to join an astronomical club in your area.

Your telescope should come with a beginners manual. Depending on whether the telescope has an alt-azimuthal mount, parallactic mount, a simple motor drive, a GOTO drive, a computer-connectable GOTO drive or other specialties, you can or cannot connect it to a computer running Stellarium. The wiki manual on http://stellarium.org has all relevant info. On astrophotography, other web fora are better suited.

The Android version is not supported from this website.

Can you help with this problem?
