The first microscope is credited to Hans Janssen and his son Zacharias Janssen, who were Dutch spectacle makers in the late 16th century. They are believed to have created a compound microscope around 1590. However, it was Galileo Galilei who later improved upon their design in the early 17th century, enhancing its functionality. The contributions of these early pioneers laid the groundwork for the development of modern microscopy.
