Galileo Telescopes

I had some lenses, so I made a telescope as close as possible to one that Galileo made. A brief history of Galileo's telescope is at: cnx.rice.edu/content/m11932/latest/ Details of this design archived at: web.archive.org/web/20031206235102/http://galileo.imss.fi... ( I correct it to read " wooden tube covered with paper is equipped with an objective bi-convex lens and a plano-concave eyepiece. It magnifies 14 times. The objective lens of this telescope has a focal distance of 1330mm and a useful aperture of 26mm." ).
