Age 5+ Artec Galileo Thermometer

Introducing Galileo Thermometer 1

Elegant and functional piece that seamlessly combines artistry with science. This exquisite thermometer is not just a temperature-measuring device; it’s a work of art that adds sophistication to any home or office space.

The Galileo Thermometer 1 operates on the principle of buoyancy, as discovered by the renowned scientist Galileo Galilei. Inside the glass cylinder, a series of glass spheres filled with colorful liquid float in a clear liquid. Each sphere has a metal tag attached to it, indicating a specific temperature. As the temperature changes, the density of the liquid in the glass spheres changes, causing them to rise or sink accordingly. By observing which spheres are floating and which are submerged, you can determine the current temperature with remarkable accuracy.

But the Galileo Thermometer 1 is more than just a functional device—it’s also a stunning piece of decor. Crafted from high-quality materials, including hand-blown glass and precision-calibrated temperature indicators, this thermometer exudes elegance and sophistication. Whether displayed on a mantelpiece, desk, or bookshelf, it instantly adds a touch of class to any room.

Moreover, the Galileo Thermometer 1 serves as a captivating conversation starter and educational tool. Its unique design and scientific principles make it an intriguing subject for discussion, sparking curiosity and interest in visitors of all ages. Children and adults alike can learn about the fascinating properties of liquids and the physics behind temperature measurement while admiring the beauty of this timeless instrument.

In addition to its decorative and educational value, the Galileo Thermometer 1 also offers practical benefits. With its precise temperature readings and eye-catching design, it provides both form and function, allowing you to monitor changes in temperature with style and sophistication.

In conclusion, Galileo Thermometer 1 is more than just a thermometer—it’s a masterpiece that combines art, science, and functionality in one elegant package. Whether used as a decorative accent, educational tool, or practical instrument, it adds beauty and intrigue to any environment while providing accurate temperature measurements. Elevate your decor and expand your understanding of the natural world with Galileo Thermometer 1 today

You can check the temperature according to the movement of float inside the cylinder. Put floats with different mass and volume in the liquid, then, as the temperature changes, liquid specific gravity changes and the floats will go up / down accordingly.

Use a device that was invented in the 1600s to determine the temperature! Inside this large thermometer are glass bulbs of different densities. The density of liquid is proportional to its temperature, so as the temperature of the liquid changes, thus does its density, causing the glass bulbs to rise and fall according to their relative densities. Reading the temperature of the lowest glass bulb at the top of the thermometer gives a rough estimate of the surrounding temperature. Can also be used as an educational aid for a lesson on density. Measures approximately 1.3″ diameter and 11″ tall. Measures temperatures from 18 degrees Celsius to 26 degrees Celsius. This Thermometer also makes for a great decor piece any room. Great conversation piece. Made of glass with hydrocarbon, alcohol liquid.
