Astronomy
Binoculars?
For stargazing, using binoculars can be the perfect thing. Hefting a big telescope out for a simple look at the moon is not only a pain, but not necessary with the options available in a larger pair of binoculars. Big objective lenses for gathering lots of light in the dark with 60, 80, or even 100-millimeter sizes are most common in this type of binocular. Powers range from 11x to 30x. Due to the fact that the objective lenses are so large on astronomical binoculars, a tripod should definitely be considered. Most binoculars for astronomy have a place for a tripod adapter or one built into their body already.
