2 or 3 years ago we bought my father a telescope for his brithday, and ever since it has been a piece of 'art' in my house. I thought i'd put it to use, i have an interest in astronomy and now i really want to learn how to use this.
the telescope is a Bushnell 675x5" Reflector Telescope, link below for more details.

I've fiddled with it a few tiems and have brought it out to try it out and i am really having trouble. I set in either the 4mm or 20mm eye piece, and i see nothing but pitch black through them after searching for a few minutes. I try over and over again and see nothing but pitch black. (no, i didn't leave a cap on). I'd think that with a telescope, it should not be very hard to find some viewable light?
so, any suggestions?
