Eyes to the Stars (Part 1) - Ancient Seekers to Dutch Breakthrough

  • Résumé

  • Before we reached for the stars, we first learned to bend light.

    It began in silence—an Egyptian artisan polishing crystal for a pharaoh’s gaze, unaware that his lens gave stone a glint of life.

    Across centuries and civilizations, from the nimble hands of Indian jewelers and Chinese sages to the curious minds of Greek philosophers, the power to magnify slowly took shape.

    But it wasn’t until a Dutch watchmaker, tinkering with glass and gears, accidentally aligned two lenses that the distant suddenly became near—
    and humanity opened its first true eye to the universe.
