TELESCOPE:

Are you searching for a device which helps you to see planets and stars clearly? Then here is the telescope. A telescope is an instrument designed for the observation of remote objects and the collection of electromagnetic radiation. The first known practically functioning telescopes were invented in the Netherlands in the beginning of the 17th century. The name "Telescope" was invented by an unidentified Greek poet/theologian, present at a banquet held in 1611 by Prince Federico Cesi. It was given to a version of the instrument constructed by Galileo Galilei. Telescope can refer to a whole range of instruments operating in most regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
