D They allowed scientists to see farther or with greater clarity and detail.
Advancements in telescopes after Galileo's time, such as the development of larger apertures, better lenses, and reflecting telescopes, enabled astronomers to observe celestial objects with much greater clarity and helped in discovering new planets, moons, and distant galaxies. These improvements fundamentally changed our understanding of the universe.
