The kit is stamped from sheets of cardboard, with 4-colour printing plus gold, complete with glass lenses for 12X magnification and a wall or table mount. Galileo turned his telescope to the Milky Way and discovered that it consisted of a vast number of stars, each too faint to be seen individually with the naked eye. The orbiter carried 10 science instruments and a. His little telescope was poorer than even a cheap modern amateur telescope. Galileo was designed to make the first study of Jupiter and its moons and magnetosphere from orbit. Galileo Telescope Makers, astronomy experts of India, based in Mumbai, brings you the largest selection of telescopes and telescope accessories that fits. Particulars of lensmaking technology, basic optics. But Galileo was the first to use the telescope to study the heavens systematically. In his book The Sidereal Messenger Galileo describes his discoveries supporting the Copernican heliocentric theory, which proposed that Earth and the other planets revolve around the Sun. In 1610 he discovers four moons revolving around the planet Jupiter. This kit telescope corresponds in size and optical properties to the telescopes of that time and is based on the only surviving telescope that can be attributed to Galileo with certainty: the oldest telescope in the world - a leather-trimmed example decorated with gold embossed splendour for Cosimo II de 'Medici, which is today exhibited in Florence. Early steps tracing back to Galileos telescope and to the birth of instrumental optics are reported. Galileo builds a telescope to observe the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars. This historically accurate cardboard replica lets you immediately experience the great research achievements of Galileo for yourself, despite the modest optical performance of this telescope by today's standards. Galileo invented an improved telescope that let him observe and describe the moons of Jupiter, the rings of Saturn, the phases of Venus, sunspots and the rugged lunar surface. So on the 400th anniversary UNESCO declared 2009 the International Year of Astronomy. Galileos work with the telescope unleashed the notion that ours is a sun-centered solar system and not an Earth-centered solar system, says Pitts. His discoveries - craters on the Moon, the phases of Venus, the moons around Jupiter - were a scientific sensation and established a new understanding of astronomy that still shapes our world view even today. In 1609 Galileo Galilei perfected the telescope that had been invented in Holland the year before and pointed it at the night sky.
