Picard, binoculars

Picard using binoculars in the 24th century

Binoculars were a device used by Humans and other species. They had small identical mirrors inside them, which allowed a person to view distant objects with both eyes.

In 1986, a whale hunter stationed on a crow's nest aboard a Scandinavian whaling ship was using binoculars when he spotted George and Gracie. His captain had binoculars, which were supported by a wooden beam, and he used it to confirm the sighting. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)

McCoy, 23rd century binoculars

James T. Kirk and Spock used 23rd century versions of binoculars while on Nimbus III after landing far from Paradise City. Earlier, Leonard McCoy used the same binoculars to view Kirk climbing El Capitan. (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier)

Geordi La Forge's VISOR functioned much like binoculars in some cases. (TNG: "Hide and Q")

Bajoran binoculars

In 2372, Major Kira Nerys equipped herself with Bajoran binoculars during a mission to locate the crashed Cardassian freighter Ravinok, that was carrying Bajoran prisoners. Kira used the binoculars to look at the Ravinok survivors at a labor camp overseen by the Breen. (DS9: "Indiscretion")

In 2375, Captain Jean-Luc Picard viewed the mountains on Ba'ku through binoculars with Anij while looking for suitable locations to hide from the Son'a. (Star Trek: Insurrection)

Later that year Lieutenant Nadia Larkin and Reese used binoculars to locate Jem'Hadar soldiers on AR-558, that were planning to attack the Starfleet forces. (DS9: "The Siege of AR-558")
