		Hans Lippershey also spelled Lipperhey (1570 –1619), spectacle-maker in Holland, was born in Wesel (western Germany) and settled in Middelburg, the capital of Zeeland in the southwesternmost province of the Netherlands.
		Lippershey is believed to be the first to apply for a patent for his design of an early telescope in 1608.

	Hans Lippershey Summary
		Born in Wesel (Germany), Lippershey migrated to Zeeland in the Netherlands.
		Little is known about Lippershey except that he married in 1594 and officially became a citizen of his adopted country in 1602.
		Lippershey applied for a patent in 1608, but the device could not be kept a secret and the patent was eventually denied.

	L11 The selenologic column and time scale
		A consequence of micrometeorite gardening is that from Earth based observations, large Moon craters can be sorted into two broad age-categories: young craters (such as Copernicus, with high albedo ejector aprons and associated secondary-impact ejecta craters and rays); and, old partly obliterated craters (such as Eratosthenes, with slumped rims and no clearly visible rays).
		Also, as Moon craters are impact craters (no longer an assumption, since analysis of Apollo returned materials), the younger age of the maria formation is corroborated by the terrae formation being fifteen times more cratered (counting craters 10 kilometers or larger in diameter).
		Crater counting the relative age of the Copernican and the Eratosthenian craters, and knowing the age of the maria and the terra and establishes that the flux and size range of infalling material (meteorites, planetesimals) has exponentially decreased since Moon's rock record began.

	Popular Misconceptions:
		The correct name of this formation should be Meteorite Crater, since it was forged by such an object striking the earth’s surface about 25,000 years ago.
		If it were not for the fact that Meteor Crater is owned privately, it would certainly be a national monument, and more people would have become familiar with its grandeur.
		It is not known whether it was Lippershey himself, his son, or a worker in Lippershey’s Dutch optical shop who first stumbled across the discovery.

		Galileo is generally credited with being the first to use a telescope for astronomical purposes, however there is some evidence that the Assyrians may have used a form of telescope in their astronomical studies.
		It would seem from certain papers, now in the library of the University of Leyden, and included in Huygens's papers, that Lippershey was probably the first to invent a telescope and to describe his invention.

	Telescope Revolution of the 17th century
		The first known patent for a workable telescope was applied for by Hans Lippershey - a spectacle maker of Middelburg in Zeeland in September 1608.
		Lippershey presented his spy-glass to Count Maurice of Nassau, who immediately ordered three more and ordered him to keep his methods secret.
		But no sooner had the spy-glass been patented and advertised, others were circumventing Lippershey's patent with devices of their own.

		And it's a good job this is the case, because radio frequency electronics wasn't that hot a topic 4000 years ago when astronomy was first studied.
		The simplest telescopes were first created, it is thought, in 1609 by a Dutch spectacle maker named Hans Lippershey, but it was the infamous Galileo Galilei who first used them to look at the stars.
		They consisted of two glass lenses of different thicknesses at either end of a tube, which could, in the more advanced versions, be shortened or lengthened to improve the focus.
