From 1580-1638, Zacharias Janssen, and his father Hans Janssen, worked together to create the first microscope.  They were spectacle makers, and decided to experiment using lenses.  They achieved a microscope much better than a magnifying glass.

During the discoveries of the Janssens, Galileo was working on creating a telescope, when he noticed that he could reverse it.  He created his own version of a microscope in 1609.

In 1676, Antoine made a microscope far superior to Galileo's or the Janssens. With his microscope he could view the anatomy of plants, and see small organisms like bacteria.

It can see moving cells, and electrons.
