Early telescope makers compensated for chromatic aberration by?
Newton realized that mirrors do not cause chromatic aberrations, and built a telescope using them.
Who invented the telescope?
The earliest evidence of telescopes were refracting telescopes from the Netherlands in 1608. Their development is credited to three individuals: Hans Lippershey and Zacharias Janssen, who were spectacle makers in Middelburg, and Jacob Metius of Alkmaar.Hans Lippershey invented the telescope, sometime before 1608 A.D. (which is the earliest record of him applying for a patent). Jacob Metius applied for a similar patent only a few weeks later.Galileo greatly improved upon these designs the following year, using improved optics. He did not invent the telescope, but he was both the first person to use it and also improve the telescope. It was the astronomical observations recorded by Galileo in 1610 (including the discovery that Jupiter has moons of its own) that is most closely associated with the first use of the telescope.
Are geologists map makers?
No, Cartographers are map makers.
How old is this Ross London telescope it is stamped no 45289?
Most English instrument makers began stamping their names in the late 1800's. Prior to that, they engraved their names. So yours is not older than, say, approximately 1875 earliest. I don't know when Ross started using serial numbers, but since our number is quite high I'd be leaning toward thinking your telescope comes from the early 1900's.
How was the telescope discovered?
The telescope was invented by somebody who was toying with two lenses and while looking through them he saw that distant objects in the sky were magnified a great many times. He jumped up and down while shouting "Hurray, hurray, I just invented the telescope. Long may I live!"

Did isaac newton invented the telescoped?
Neither Newton nor Galileo invented the telescope. It was developed independently by various dutch optics makers (Lippershey submitted the first patent). Galileo's first telescope was dutch-made, and he made useful improvements to the initial retractor design. Newton did invent the reflecting telescope (the particular design is now called a Newtonian Telescope). Further improvements to the reflector design were made by Cassegrain and others made improvements to the manufacturing process, greatly improving the mirror quality. A refracting telescope uses a lens as the main objective, while a reflecting telescope uses a mirror. The objective is the component that focuses the light. Reflector telescopes are the most common nowadays, as they do not suffer from chromatic aberration (light splitting due to refraction) and can be built in very large diameters. --- Galileo improved the refracting telescope, but Newton invented the reflecting telescope.
Who was the first man who had discovered the telescope?
The first telescope was invented (not "discovered") by Dutch spectacle-makers in the Netherlands, we believe, in around 1607. No, Galileo did not invent the telescope, but built his own after reading about one and substantially improved the design.

When was the first telescope made?
The earliest evidence of working telescopes were the refracting telescopes that appeared in the Netherlands in 1608. Their development is credited to three individuals: Hans Lippershey and Zacharias Janssen, who were spectacle makers in Middelburg, and Jacob Metius of Alkmaar.The first telescope was made by Galileo Galilee and he made many others after that
When did Johannes Kepler invent the telescope?
Johannes Kepler did not invent the telescope. The first telescopes were developed in the Netherlands and are credited to three individuals: Hans Lippershey and Zacharias Janssen, who were spectacle makers in Middelburg, and Jacob Metius of Alkmaar. Galileo developed improvements on those early refracting telescope designs and Kepler developed improvements on Galileo's design.
Who used the telescoped for the first time?
Galileo was the first to use the telescope for astronomical observation. Galileo based his telescopes on ones he saw Dutch sailers on trading ships using. So you have to go back to the Netherlands to find earlier telescope makers/users. It is likely the Dutch may have adapted the idea from someone else before them.
What is the difference between spore makers and seed makers?
The difference between spore makers and seed makers is that seed makers are plants and spore makers are decomposers. For an example a mushroom is a decomposer and is a spore maker.
