Just bought a Nikon D5100 and trying to photograph the moon or night sky. Any suggestions?

I just purchased a D5100 and slowly learning the basics. I mostly shoot landscape/scenery shots. I have been trying to capture the full moon unsuccessfully. It looks focused in the viewfinder and I've experimented with slow shutter speeds and large apertures but always comes out as a bright glare. I'm never able to see the details of the moon.
