yes
the first hing he made was a reflecting telescope
They both use a parabolic reflector.
Newton did not invent the telescope, he invented the reflecting telescope. The reflecting telescope was a major improvement over the distorting refracting telescope.
The type of telescope is called a reflector. There are multiple subtypes of reflectors like a dobsonian, newtonian, RC, etc. Check out my youtube video on how to work with pictures taken from a telescope. youtu.be/M7-vLeVhM9g

The Hubble Space telescope is a reflecting Telecope
He invented the reflecting telescope. Galileo was the first to use the telescope for studies of the heavens.
A refracting telescope is a type of telescope that has a large thin lense at the front and a smaller thicker lense at the end where the eyepiece is. Refracting telescopes use lenses unlike reflecting telescopes that use mirrors to reflect the light. This is a good image of a refracting and reflecting telescope: [See related link]
The first recorded attempt was by Niccolò Zucchi (1616). The first successful reflecting telescope was made by James Gregory (1663).

It is a reflecting telescope
A reflecting telescope uses mirrors while refracting telescopes uses lens. The refracting telescope also had chromatic aberration and bad resolution while the reflecting telescope had none of these.
A Reflecting telescope has a lot of zooming technologies and the High Power telescope is highly powered.
