No: Galileo's telescope was a Galilean refractor, which is to say it has a single large object lens at the top end and a concave eye lens at the other end. This is not a popular type of telescope now because it has a small field of view, and it is only used for cheap telescopes and Opera glasses.

probably in his house. he was looking at the stars and figured out that when you hold two kinds of lenses in front of each other it magnifies it Galileos lived all his life in tuscony in Italy.
What kind of telescope uses both a reflecting mirror and a refracting lens to produce wide angle photos of the sky?
A reflecting telescope has both magnifying mirrors and lenses to focus the image on the eyepiece. A refracting telescope uses only lenses to magnify and focus. A reflecting telescope can be much smaller, because the light can travel through the barrel of the telescope several times, being magnified with each reflection. This is why most large modern telescopes are reflectors.
