For portable use binoculars are good and the best size is 7 x 50 which gives a steady bright image without too much wobbling.
The best astronomy, telescope, binocular and microscope site for the Boston area is Scope City online. Check out the features for the Bushnell Telescope before buying.
Binoculars have one tube for each eye while a telescope only has one tube.
An astronomical telescope is one that is used in astronomy - i.e., to watch stars, planets, comets, etc.
One I know is the invention of the telescope
The 4C array is a type of radio telescope that is a cylindrical paraboloid. One can find this telescope at the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory in Cambridge, England.
Discovered more-or-less accidentally by a Dutch optician, the telescope has evolved into one of man's best "eyes" to see things at great distances. They were the basis of a quantum increase in knowledge in the field of astronomy. They are invaluable to such fields as the military, navigation, and surveying.

The first binocular telescope, consisting of two telescopes placed side by side, was. constructed in 1608 by Johann Lipperhey, the inventor of the ordinary Dutch telescope. hope this helps i saw it on another question quiet similar 2 this one .
Go for a binocular. Since you mentioned you are an amateur, I would suggest you first read up a lot about telescope and the variety of lenses, before you invest in it. Telescopes are very expensive these days and also you need to buy certain accessories along with it. Once you have read about the gadget, enroll yourself at any astronomical club, where you can use a telescope to star gaze. Alternatively, instead of spending money on one telescope, you can go for a space camp, where you'll get to handle various hi-fi telescopes. There you'll also get hands-on astronaut training. hence you will get a broader overview and a first hand knowledge of space and astronomy, which i think is a great opportunity for any space lover! well check out this link if you're interested .... http://spacecampindia.com/
