Hi

That's about what you can expect from any electronic eyepiece. The 902 really doesn't have the resolution (about a tenth of a MP) or the sensitivity to do a good job on fainter objects. Electronic eyepieces are an inexpensive way to get real time images on a computer, but are a far cry from the quality of what you see with a regular eyepiece.

It's basically the equivalent of a 9mm eyepiece in terms of magnification
