like many other philosophers who have greatly extended our knowledge of nature, Galileo had a remarkable aptitude for the invention of instruments designed for philosophical research.

Among the earliest of his inventions appears to have been the thermometer, which he constructed in 16 02 No doubt this apparatus and its primitive form differed in some aspects. From the contrivance we call by the same name Galileo at first employed of water as the agent, its expansion was the basis of the measure of temperature.
