Marking the fourth centenary of the first astronomical discoveries made by Galileo Galilei, the Galileo's Telescope exhibition at Stockholm's Nobel Museum is dedicated to the discoveries of the Italian genius. It displays one of only two of Galileo's existing telescopes.
The exhibition is timely as UNESCO has officially proclaimed 2009 the 'International Year of Astronomy'. This is the first time ever that one of Galileo's two existing telescopes has been displayed outside Italy.
