Images online, whether from the space based or large ground based telescopes are undoubtedly incredible, however there are a few things to consider about these images, compared to when viewing these objects through a telescope:
Camera images (from telescopes) are taken with extremely expensive, high-tech equipment, that will have the ability to do super long exposure images, that are then edited and they will have gathered light our eyes can't see (infrared and x-ray). These instruments are more sensitive to light than the human eye and some have been taken outside the disturbance of Earth's atmosphere.

Viewing objects through a telescope is an incredible and mind blowing experience. It's the most natural, raw way you will see the planets, the moon, stars and anything else that resides amongst our cosmos. These sights are truly inspiring and we never know how it will affect people emotionally, some people cry, some people jump up and down and others have a smile from ear to ear.
Please bare in mind, although you will not see images quite like the space images, what you do see through the telescope will leave you astonished and forever remembering when you first saw them with your own two eyes.
