Did Albert Einstein develop the first radio telescope?

No, Albert Einstein did not develop the first radio telescope. The first radio telescope was built by Karl Jansky in the early 1930s. Jansky's work laid the foundation for radio astronomy, which was further advanced by others, including Grote Reber, who constructed the first dedicated radio telescope in 1937. Einstein’s contributions were primarily in theoretical physics, particularly in the realms of relativity and quantum mechanics.


When was the radio telescope first made?
