History of the galileo thermometer
The physicist Galilio Galilei (1564-1642) discovered that density of liquid changes according to temperature. This principle is used within the Galileo Thermometer, Depending on the temperature, the glass bulbs in the thermometer either rise or fall. The actual temperature is shown by the lowest of the upper floating glass coloured bulbs.
VERY ATTRACTIVE
This sort of gift is not only very attractive, accurate and unusual, it is very hard to find. it's the sort of gift that inspires conversation as very few people actually know what it is and this leaves the way open for some interesting and fun teases!! Ray Czechowski
