4) As I look through my telescope, objects in the sky appear to move. Why is that?
The constant rotation of the Earth makes things appear to move. Lower-power eyepieces will reduce this effect
of movement considerably and allow you to observe an object for a longer duration before you have to readjust
your telescope.
