Hans Lippershey in 1608
The Gregorian refracting telescope was invented by Scottish mathematician and astronomer James Gregory in the 17th century. He designed this telescope to address some of the optical issues of the existing telescopes at that time.
A refracting telescope is a type of optical telescope. It was used in astronomical telescopes and spy glasses. Objective lens are used to produce the image.
Sir Isaac Newton is credited with inventing the first practical reflecting telescope, which used a concave mirror as the primary optical element instead of a lens. This design helped to minimize chromatic aberration, a common issue associated with traditional refracting telescopes that used lenses.
The concept of lenses dates back thousands of years, with ancient civilizations like the Egyptians and Greeks using simple glass lenses. However, the invention of the modern lens is credited to Dutch eyeglass maker Hans Lippershey, who patented the first known refracting telescope in 1608, leading to the development of various lens types for different applications.
The image in a refracting telescope appears bigger by the magnification factor provided by the telescope's eyepiece. This is typically around 50-100 times for most amateur telescopes.
the first man invented the telescope was Galileo Galilei your anwser is correct you really know your stuff
DUTCH
The refracting telescope was invented around 1608 by Dutch eyeglass maker Hans Lippershey.

galileo
Newton invented the reflecting telescope which is a a great advance over the refracting telescope. The refracting telescope distorted the image via refraction. Newton invented Calculus, which is the engine of mathematics. Newton invented lens and prisms for light analysis.
i think it is the guy whose surname is Snell.
Thomas Edison i think
Sir Isaac Newton invented the refracting telescope. He also formulated the laws of universal gravitation.
Venus can be seen with a telesecope, or even just with your eyes.

nope they are the same
