This is an illustrated history of the telescope, beginning with pre-telescopic observatories and the refractors of Galileo, Lippershey and Digges, and ending with the most modern instruments including the Hubble Space Telescope. It was written to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the television programme, "The Sky at Night". It provides its readers with an overview of the way astronomical telescopes have evolved with technology during the past 450 years.
