The Moon Mission Tabletop 100 telescope is a "push-
to" telescope, that comes assembled on a simple alt-az
mount. "Alt" is short for altitude (vertical adjustment)
and "Az" is short for azimuth (horizontal adjustment).
Moving the scope to capture a target is simple. Just
apply pressure in the direction you want to go.
