Hans Lippershey  Inventor of the telescope

Also known as Johann Hans Lippershey Lippershey or Lipperhey, is a maker of bloody German-Dutch lens. He was born in Wesel, western Germany. Then he settled in Middelburg, the Netherlands in 1594, and married in the same year, and became a citizen of the Netherlands in 1602. Middelburg he lived until his death. Galileo's telescope, the first telescope was not found. Before Galileo, a lot of researchers who claim that he is the inventor of the telescope. 

Telescope may have created a lot earlier, and still be a debate about the actual inventor. But Lippershey believed to be the first person gets a patent for his design and make it for general use in 1608. However, on the fact he failed to receive a patent for his discovery telescope. But eventually he was rewarded by the Dutch government for the duplicate of the design. "The Dutch Perspective Glass", Binoculars star Lippershey could find only increase three times magnification. Early initiative to obtain a patent from the findings presented in the final report to the Dutch Embassy of the Kingdom of Siam, led by King Ekathotsarot.

Diplomatic reports soon spread to Europe, and encourage experimentation by other scientists such as Italian Paolo Sarpi, who received a report in November, or Thomas Harriot of England in 1609, and Galileo Galilei were immediately modify Lippershey telescope. Hans Lippershey holds a lens in front of another lens to enlarge the distance of the object. By installing two lenses in a tube made of wood, Lippershey make the first telescope

New glass making techniques introduced by the Italians in the 1590s, and perhaps some idea of ??combining these lenses have come up glassmaker community. Although people claim that the invention of the telescope and instruments impossible to remain confidential, the early records have been found of a device (like a telescope) Zeeland government stated in a letter to his delegation at the United Netherlands, dated 25 September 1608, which contains the "who is the person who finds new discoveries that can see objects at a distance as if it will be close ". After that, there is also a petition of Jacob Metius of Alkmaar, a city in the north of the Netherlands, who also claimed to be the inventor of the telescope. The third claim is also emerging from Sacharias Janssen, and also became the talk of Middelburg, which appeared a few decades later. Note that there is not sufficient enough to determine who the actual inventor of the telescope. All we can say is that patents Lippershey the beginning of a record of the discovery of the telescope.
