She has presented at the American Association of Chemistry Teachers (AATC) and was an Adjunct General Chemistry Instructor at Northeast Wisconsin Technical College. tall, the Galileo Thermometer holds seven floating globes in total – with the lowest floating globe indicating the current temperature. The key is to not hold the thermometer in your hands because your hands will warm it up and give a skewed reading.

An ivory indicator determines the height that needs to be reached by the mercury in the vessel to take correct readings. For our Galileo thermometer, for any given density, some of the bubbles will float while others will sink. The Galileo thermometer works because of the principle of buoyancy, which states that objects that are denser than their surroundings sink, and objects that are less dense than their surroundings float. SCIENCE MEETS ART: The Galileo Thermometer is an example of utilizing scientific principle to create a useful artistic piece for day-to-day use. You can tell the temperature by reading the medallion on the middle floating sphere, if there are clusters of spheres at the top and the bottom of the tube, or with a few other tricks, depending on the configuration of the spheres.Under normal conditions, the orbs will settle into two groupings toward the top and bottom of the glass column as shown to the left. Each glass ball has a metal tag attached that serves to both indicate temperature and as a counterweight. Both pieces are beautifully shaped with a wooden base that makes the set easy to display on desk or bookshelf.
