IMPORTANT: After making the first, or each adjustment, it is necessary to re-aim the
telescope tube to re-center the star again in the center of the field of view. The star image
can then be judged for symmetry by going just inside and outside of exact focus and
noting the star's pattern. Improvement should be seen if the proper adjustments are

rews necessary to move the star’s image toward the direction of the flaring. In this example, you would
ant to move the image of the star in your eyepiece, by adjusting the collimation screws, toward the three

age from the center of the field of view to about halfway, or less, toward the field's edge (when using a

ollimation adjustments are best made while viewing the star's position in the field of

hich way the movement occurs. It may be helpful to have two people working

a longer focal length ocular with a Barlow lens. When a star is in focus it should look like a sharp pinpoint
of light. If, when focusing on the star, it is irregular in shape or appears to have a flare of light at its edge,
this means your mirrors aren’t in alignment. If you notice the appearance of a flare of light from the star
that remains stable in location, just as you go in and out of exact focus, then re-collimation will help
sharpen the image.

obstruction is skewed off to the left side of the diffraction pattern indicating poor collimation.
