Question: who invented the telescope during the scientific revolution

title: History of the telescope
text: The earliest known telescope appeared in 1608 in the Netherlands when an eyeglass maker named Hans Lippershey tried to obtain a patent on one . Although Lippershey did not receive his patent , news of the new invention soon spread across Europe . The design of these early refracting telescopes consisted of a convex objective lens and a concave eyepiece . Galileo improved on this design the following year and applied it to astronomy . In 1611 , Johannes Kepler described how a far more useful telescope could be made with a convex objective lens and a convex eyepiece lens and by 1655 astronomers such as Christiaan Huygens were building powerful but unwieldy Keplerian telescopes with compound eyepieces .
