08006-05 Galileo Thermometer; 64 to 88°F (18 to 30°C), 17 in. by Digi-Sense

Colorful glass thermometer is based on Galileo's theory developed over 400 years ago: in liquid, a body of fixed mass becomes less buoyant as the liquid temperature rises, and more buoyant as the temperature decreases - due to changes in liquid density. As temperature changes, the multi-colored balls rise and fall within the liquid-filled thermostatic tube. Lowest sphere in the top group within the instrument indicates ambient temperature.
