Historia. Pierwsze znane praktyczne teleskopy zostały skonstruowane przy użyciu szklanych soczewek w Holandii na początku XVII wieku przez Hansa Lipperheya, a wkrótce potem przez Galileusza we Włoszech. Znalazły one zastosowanie w działaniach militarnych i w astronomii.
The reflecting telescope, which uses mirrors to collect and focus light, was invented within a few decades of the first refracting telescope. In the 20th century, many new types of telescopes were invented, including radio telescopes in the 1930s and infrared telescopes in the 1960s.
The following timeline lists the significant events in the invention and development of the telescope. BC. 2560 BC to 1 BC. c.2560 BC–c.860 BC — Egyptian artisans polish rock crystal, semi-precious stones, and latterly glass to produce facsimile eyes for statuary and mummy cases. The intent appears to be to produce an optical illusion. [1][2][3]

An optical telescope is a telescope that gathers and focuses light mainly from the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, to create a magnified image for direct visual inspection, to make a photograph, or to collect data through electronic image sensors. There are three primary types of optical telescope:
