10 or 7 x 50 are the binos of choice for most astronomers.
Satellites, the ISS,  constellations, bright comets and a few variable stars etc are usually all within reach - but they wont be a replacement of a good telescope. Binoculars are good for the general big picture  - just like the naked eye is best for observing meteors.
