The telescope was invented by several Dutchmen, who could not sell the idea. They took it to Italy hoping for a better reception and showed it to Galileo. He bought the invention and his first use was not science but to make money. He sold copies as a military aid to various Italian city-states. He stationed a servant on a hill south of Venice to look for merchant ships coming up the Adriatic that were overdue. If he identified one he would run to the waterfront and buy up the cargo at a discount before others learned that the ship would actually make port. He also observed Saturn, and that made history.
