Microscopes are used to see objects too small for the human eye.

One of the first microscopes was made in 1590 by Zaccharias and Hans Janssen.

Galileo later improved their invention in 1609.

Three types of microscope:

-Optical (uses visible light wavelengths)

-Electron (uses electrons to magnify the object)

-Scanning probe (uses a physical probe)
