• Galileo Galilei was the first to direct the "telescope" into the
sky, turning it into a telescope, and received new scientific
data. He invented his telescope in 1609. With his help, he
discovered mountains on the moon, and then made the
world's first map of the lunar surface. With the help of his
invention, he also discovered four moons of Jupiter,
discovered that the Milky Way consists of many stars,
discovered a spot on the Sun and its rotation, the phases of
Venus. These astronomical discoveries brought Galileo and
his telescope such wide popularity that he even established
the production of telescopes.

Galileo Galilei is also considered one of the contenders for the
invention of the microscope. In 1606, Galileo Galilei published a
scientific article where he outlined the idea and drawings of the
proportional compass he invented.
