no, Hans Lippershey / Johann Lippershey was the inventor. but Gelileo modified the telescope so it could be more powerful to allow him to observe outer space. through this he made many discoveries such as the moons surface not being smooth as thought but bumpy and rough. but he wouldn't have made these discoveries if it weren't for Hans Lippershey.
Did Gelileo invent the telescope- a item used to make items in the the distance seem closer so we can study them with glass lenses?

Issac newton. who later on discovered the law of gravity from watching a apple drop off a tree. he made a simple formula for gravity. he claimed that all physical objects have a mass which is the amount of matter. depending on the amount of mass and the distance between the objects is how strong the gravity is.

although he did most likely make the first thermometer it was not the one we use today. Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit was the one to put the mercury into the thermometer to make them more accurate. when the mercury in the glass tube heat up it expands going up showing showing the temperature by the lines marked. yet as if this was not enough he invented the temperature scale that is still used today in the united states, Fahrenheit.
