History of the telescope received the report in November, and the English mathematician and astronomer Thomas Harriot, who used a six-powered telescope by the summer of 1609 to observe features on the moon. The Italian polymath Galileo Galilei was in Venice in June 1609 and there heard of the "Dutch perspective glass" by means of which distant objects appeared nearer and larger. Galileo states that he solved the problem of the construction of a telescope the first night after his return to Padua from Venice and made his first telescope the next day by fitting a convex lens in one extremity of a leaden
Solar eclipses on the Moon at 43.31°S) where the temperatures remains high. Some craters are slightly cooler but as warm as the surface and warmer than areas outside the mares (basins) such as Copernicus and Langrenus. On the Moon, when there is a partial eclipse, one example is when half of the Sun is blocked (north or south), a part of the Moon has a partial eclipse (north or south). In some partial eclipses when the center of the Earth's shadow misses the Moon, one example is one hemisphere has a partial eclipse and the other does not. In some eclipses when the center of
