Adam Savage investigates one of The Royal Society's most prized artifacts: a reflecting telescope designed and made by Sir Isaac Newton! As depicted in Newton's drawings--this model was one of the first reflecting telescopes successfully created to demonstrate the concept, which is still the fundamental design for telescopes today!
