You can see things such as Craters on the Moon, the most popular thing to look at to start. Then once you get fimiliar with your scope then you will want to view some planets, star clusters, nebula. Then once you really get going you will want to try for you Messier Certificate, then you Moon Certificate, Sun Certificate, and many more. All of these Certificates are avaliable from an organization that wants to help the amateur astronomer get more familiar with the night sky.
