Telescopium
Telescopium (Latin for Telescope) is a minor southern constellation identified and named by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille, the 18th century French astronomer, a student of the southern skies.
Mythology
Since it was introduced in the 17th century, and, as a southern constellation, was not visible to mediterranian culture, there is no earlier mythology associated with it.
