Thanks ketan.

He passed away on January 8, 1642, at age 77.

The actual inventor is confirmed on the basis of the stories that are really funny and interesting. Hans Lippershey was a spectacle maker and it was in his shop that the first kind of telescopes was discovered.

They were accidently found out by the children who visited his shop for fun. Thus Lippershey can be considered as the inventor of telescopes. There were several people coming up claiming the same invention that they made and wanted the credit of the invention of telescope along with Lippershey.

Thanks for information.

Thank You Very Much Ketan and Lavanya
