1. A hand-held pair such as 10x50, and a tripod-mounted pair such as 15x70 or 20x80. Get the smaller pair first and get some experience learning the sky before investing in a larger pair. Personally, when doing binocular observing (under light-polluted skies) I will use a pair of 15x70 hand-held (not everyone can adaquately hand-hold binoculars of this size and magnification) along with a tripod-mounted pair of 25x100 binos. But you need a beefy mount/tripod for such a pair, which is an additional expense.
