Product details
Have you heard of the Galileo thermometer? This stylish glass cylinder is not only an extraordinary eye-catcher but also a useful temperature gauge for your home. Here's how it works: The glass liquid thermometer contains colorful balls that float in a transparent liquid. The famous physicist Galileo Galilei recognized as early as the late 16th century that the density of liquids changes with temperature. When heated, the liquid in the thermometer expands, causing the buoyant bodies to sink. However, when the temperature decreases again, the smaller balls gain buoyancy and rise. Simply genius!
Accurate temperature measurement: Just seeing the colorful balls sink or rise is not enough to determine the temperature. For that, the metal plates on the buoyant bodies are intended. The metal plate of the lowest ball tells you the current ambient temperature between 18 and 26 degrees Celsius.
Excellent as a gift: The standing thermometer not only delights scientists but is also an ideal gift for anyone who loves unique decor. The liquid thermometer is made of high-quality glass and becomes a focal point in the living room, bedroom, or home office.
