Stephen Hawking did not take a job from Isaac newton; rather, he succeeded Newton as the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge. This prestigious position is historically significant, as Newton held the role from 1669 until his death in 1727. Hawking was appointed to this chair in 1979 and made substantial contributions to theoretical physics and cosmology during his tenure.

Sir Isaac Newton didn't make the first telescope. He did however invent the first functionally effective reflecting telescope using a concave primary mirror and a flat diagonal secondary mirror. He built the telescope to improve his theories about light. This telescope bore advantages over the refracting telescope in that there was no longer color distortions developed by the lenses known as chromatic abberation.
