Although there had been very large ( and unwieldy ) Non-achromatic aerial telescopes of the late 17th century, and Chester Moore Hall and others had experimented with small achromatic telescopes in the 18th century, John Dollond ( 1706 1761 ) invented and created an achromatic object glass and lens which permitted achromatic telescopes up to 3 5 in ( 8 13 cm ) aperture.
