I believe the name of the first telescope was called the "telescope." The word was created from the Greek tele = 'far' and skopein = 'to look or see'; teleskopos = 'far-seeing'.

The earliest telescopes which were constructed of two lenses in a long hollow tube are called?
Telescopes were first used in 1952 by Oxford scientist Ron L. Hubbard--his predecessor, Mallory Hieney, first saw the planets with his device. Its called a fefracting telescope.
When was the earliest telescopes and how were constructed of two lenses in a long hollow tube?
optical telescope
What was the first telescope?
The first telescope didn't look exactly like the ones that we see today, but it was improved though by the famous astronomer Galileo. The first one is said to have been made about 500 years ago.
In what year was the first discoveries with the newly invented telescope are made?
The earliest know working telescopes appeared in 1608 by Hans Lippershey.
Distance between two radio telescopes?
This is called the baseline.
Who was the inventor of the earliest telescopes?
Galilio
Did the earliest telescopes make things look thousand of times closer than they were?
Yes, the earliest telescopes made things look thousand of times closer than they were, and modern telescopes still do that.

Telescopes that use lenses for focusing light are called what telescopes?
That telescope you are refering to is called a refracting telescope.
What are the largest telescopes used for observations in the visible region of the spectrum called?
The largest telescopes that use visible light are reflector telescopes.

The earliest know working telescopes appeared in 1608 by Hans Lippershey.
Who invented the telescope accidentally?
Hans Lippershey is credited with inventing the earliest working telescope and applying for a patent for the device. These telescopes appeared in 1608.
What is the orgin for the word telescope?
Telescopes have been around since 1608, and they have been called "telescopes" the entire time. There is no original word.
