Before the telescope, human understanding of the cosmos was limited to what could be observed with the naked eye. People relied on simple tools like astrolabes and sundials for navigation and timekeeping, and their astronomical knowledge was largely based on observations of celestial bodies such as the sun, moon, and visible planets. This led to a more mythological and less scientific interpretation of the universe, with celestial events often attributed to divine influence. Overall, the lack of telescopes restricted the depth of astronomical discovery and understanding.
