Physics - Universe - Learning Points. The first optical telescopes were made around 1608. Early telescopes consisted of a convex lens and an eyepiece. Later telescope designs used multiple concave mirrors to reflect light. Modern telescopes can be used to view the entire electromagnetic spectrum, from radio waves through to gamma rays. A Twig Context Film. Reinforce and extend the learning required by the curriculum. Twig’s context films show abstract concepts in action in the real world.\n
