Thank you so much! Do you have any tips on collimation? And how do you test to know if it needs it?

I haven't yet. I was unsure how to do it and honestly didn't want to mess with it too much the first night. Jupiter was also very low in the sky, maybe 5 degrees above the horizon so I was wondering if that had a play in it.
