Then the telescope came. It was invented in late 16th century, it revolutionized astronomy.
Telescopes revealed exciting and better details about the Earth's closest planetary neighbours in our solar system.
With new improvement, the optical telescope pushed astronomy ahead. As our viewing ability got better, the vast distance between objects in space became obvious.
Today, almost 500 years, after the invention of the telescope, super-powerful optical and radio telescopes operating from Earth, satellites orbiting around Earth, and sophisticated space-based telescopes have shown us the immensity of objects in space and of distances across the universe.
