Did You Know? Thermometer Fun Facts

  • The first reliable, modern thermometer was invented in 1714 by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, who also created the Fahrenheit scale.
  • Anders Celsius invented the centigrade scale (now Celsius) in 1742. Interestingly, his original scale was reversed, with 0 as the boiling point of water and 100 as the freezing point.
  • The coldest possible temperature is absolute zero, which is 0 on the Kelvin scale, equivalent to -273.15°C or -459.67°F.
  • Before Fahrenheit, Galileo Galilei invented a basic water thermoscope around 1593. It could show temperature changes but couldn’t provide an exact measurement on a scale.
  • Mercury was a popular liquid for thermometers because it expands and contracts at a very consistent rate. However, due to its toxicity, it has been largely replaced by alcohol (with a red dye) or digital sensors.
  • The highest air temperature ever reliably recorded on Earth was 56.7°C (134.1°F) in Death Valley, California, on July 10, 1913.
