20" Tall Square Tube Galileo Thermometer With Wooden Base
This is the ONLY Galileo Thermometer currently on the market that offers a SQUARE TUBE instead of a round one. Additionally, this unit display temperatures in both Fahrenheit and Celsius from 92f/32c - 60f/16c. With an oversize natural wood base, this Galileo Thermometer stands above the rest! What is a Galileo Thermometer and how do I read it? A Galileo Thermometer is a sealed glass column containing multiple liquid filled orbs. As the temperature changes, these orbs rise and fall to indicate the current ambient temperature. Under normal conditions, the orbs will settle into two groupings toward the top and bottom of the glass column as shown to the left. To read the Galileo Thermometer, observe the metal tags hanging from each orb. The tag on the lowest orb in the top grouping displays the current ambient temperature. If all the orbs float to the top, the temperature is below 60f/16c. If all the orbs sink to the bottom, the temperature is higher than 92f/32c. PLEASE NOTE:
