Summary
Niccolò Zucchi (December 6, 1586 – May 21, 1670) an Italian Jesuit, astronomer, and physicist. He may have been the first to see the belts on the planet Jupiter (on May 17, 1630) and reported spots on Mars in 1640. In his book "Optica philosophia experimentalis et ratione a fundamentis constituta" in 1652–56 he described his attempt in 1616 to construct a reflecting telescope, which may be the first time anyone ever tried to construct one.
