Sorry I can't advise you about tripods or any technical things regarding space. I'm very interested in it, particularly the beauty of the planets etc from an artistic point of view. I like to go on the Hubble site and just wonder at the awe-inspiring pictures. Good luck with the binoculars, Mell. Let me know what you see.
