Hey, i was wondering if it was safe for my eyes to look at the moon with my telescope without any special filters. I know i need special filters for looking at the sun but what about the moon?

Not having a moon filter will probably be the same as someone shining a flashlight in your eyes. It won't hurt you, but you won't be able to look at anything in the dark for a while.
