Can't advise what tripod for the binos, but you will definitely need one, they will weigh somewhere around 7 or 8 kg. Far too heavy to hand hold for more than a few seconds and never be able to hold them steady either.
The field of view will be good for most nebulae and larger bright galaxies but the magnifications will not be enough to show any more than a small disc of the major planets though you will be able to see the brighter moons of Jupiter and Saturn as pinpoints of light.
For terrestrial views and birding you may be better served by a pair of 10 X 50 binos, hand holdable and easier to manoeuvre with a wider FOV.
