Hubble Telescope

Galileo Galilei

Introduction

A telescope is a device that allows you get a better

look at far away objects by enlarging them. Your

telescope is a type of telescope called a refracting

telescope. Telescopes are the most important

optical instruments in astronomy, the branch of

science that deals with celestial objects, outer

space, and the universe as a whole. Some

telescopes are really famous, like the Hubble

Space Telescope, which is out in space and sends

back amazing pictures of very distant stars.

Telescopes have been around for

about 400 years. We don’t know

exactly who invented them.

However, Galileo Galilei (who

lived from 1564 to 1642) was the

first person to explore the sky

using the device. Among other

things, p1-he examined the surface

of the moon and discovered that it had mountains and craters. This

was an important step for astronomy.

Of course, your telescope isn’t just for looking at the night sky. You

can also use it to look at objects on Earth in the distance that you

would like to look at more closely. Scientists call this terrestrial

observation (from the Latin

terra

= earth). But it can also be used

whenever you are too far away from the action. So, for example, you

can use your telescope if you are

sitting high up in the stands at a

soccer or baseball game and you

want to have a closer look at the

players on the field.

Have you ever wanted to be able to take a closer look

at things that are far away? The Moon and stars, for

example? Or a bird perched up in a tree? Or a boat

sailing out on the open ocean? Now you can do all of

this with the My Discovery Telescope!
