    Almost no importance, they had no effect on the ability of man to go to the moon.

    No planet was first discovered with a binocular.

    The moons of Jupiter can be seen with a 10X binocular.

    Many comets have been first discovered with a binocular.

    The Moon would have been reached by 1969 without a single binocular.

    No planets were discovered by binoculars. They are not important in space travel.
