2 Replies and 1799 Views sunspots-historical �1799 �2 Started by Anonymous Pat, Hi, I've heard the chinese were credited with sunspot observation or studies before galileo. How would this have been possible, if galileo, though he did it wrongly using a telescope and ended up blind, but didn't he first observe sunspots How could the chinese if they didn't have some sort of telescope or optics at the time thank you...
