The first radio antenna used to identify an astronomical radio source was one

built by Karl Jansky, an engineer with Bell Telephone Laboratories, in 1931.

Jansky was assigned the job of identifying sources of static that might interfere

with radio telephone service.

When did Grote Weber invent the radio telescope?

Grote Reber, not Grote Weber, is credited with building the first radio telescope in 1937. He used a parabolic antenna to observe radio waves from outer space, laying the foundation for modern radio astronomy.


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.


Did Einstein create the first telescope?

No. The first telescopes were made by Hans Lippershey and Zacharias Janssen in 1608. Galileo improved their design and made the first astronomical telescope by 1609. In 1611 Kepler improved the telescope further and in 1616 Zucchi designed the first reflecting telescope. The first radio telescope was made by Reber in 1937. So, as you can see the first telescope was made several hundred years before Einstein.
