What characteristic of the atmosphere changes with altitude?
The temperature and level of oxygen. High altitudes sometimes have more snow and low altitudes are usually drier.

One advantage is that there is usually less turbulence at higher altitudes. I think because you are flying higher than those "pockets" of turbulence that you experience at lower altitudes.
When did Hans and Zacharias Jannsen create the telescope?
The dates are in dispute. The year of the single-lens optical microscope is usually given as 1590 (remarkable, in that Zacharias Jannsen's birth year is sometime between 1580 and 1588), and the year of the telescope as 1608.
What type of mirror is at the end of a reflecting telescope?
A parabolic mirror, usually. A spherical mirror is also sometimes used, but that requires additional corrections in other parts of the telescope.
