It really depends on what you mean by good. My camera tripod holds a small telescope and it is 'good'. It cost about $200. My telescope tripod holds a 12 inch telescope and the tripod cost about $1500. It has built in GPS. That is 'good' too. But if you go to a mount by a company called Ascension, you can pay over $35,000! That is GOOD!

Is it safe to view a lunar eclipse through a telescope?
You do not need a telescope to view the moon. In fact many astronomers who own telescopes prefer a good set of binoculars on a simple tripod to a mounted telescope. You also do not need a lot of magnification. The greater the magnification the greater the need for a tripod as the magnification exaggerates the shaking. The moon is quite bright so you do not need the large, light gathering apertures often found in telescopes. In Fact, those who use such telescopes for Lunar viewing often must attenuate the light source with neutral density filters. To try to view the moon without them is frustrating. Any reasonably good binoculars in the 7 x 50 range will give you 7 times magnification, and the 50mm lenses admit enough light to serve the purpose. It they are "wide field" binoculars, that is even better. The duration of the eclipse is several hours and for that reason, even holding a set of binoculars can be tiring. Some sort of device like a tripod will help prevent getting tired arms. You do not need a telescope to view the moon.

Is there a telescope that can be hooked to a camera?
Many of them! Most good cameras can be fitted with an adapter that connects them to a telescope. The details of the adapter will vary from camera to camera, and telescope to telescope. And you generally can't attach a cheap camera, or a cheap telescope, together. Google accessories for your model telescope and see what you find.

How are telescopes dangerous?
The most obvious answer to me is using them to look at the Sun. You know how a magnifying glass can be used to burn paper. Well a telescope is worse. Another one is when your leg crashes into the tripod that is holding your telescope. I have a big telescope and I did this and it hurt!

Why does the Hubble space take such clear pictures of deep space?
One important reason is that there is no atmosphere that will interfere with the telescope. Of course, it is also a good telescope, i.e., well-built.One important reason is that there is no atmosphere that will interfere with the telescope.
