DISCOVER THE COSMOS

Step back in time 400 years ago when a spectacle maker’s accidental discovery revolutionized our understanding of the universe. By simply placing two small pieces of glass together, he inadvertently created the first telescope, the “spyglass.”

Inspired by this serendipitous moment, Galileo made a few adjustments to his spyglass, pointing it skyward and revealing the vast mysteries of the cosmos.
