Figure 1. Cavendish thermometer. Beginning in 1757 Lord Charles Cavendish, vice-president of the Royal Society, invented and described a number of thermome ters utilizing the principle of the dilatation of liquid. One of these was a " minimum" thermometer used to retain the minimum temperature observed. The liquid used was alcohol. It was first used by John Phipps on the RACEHORSE in 1773.

As such, it is considered the first modern reversing thermometer. It was used on the CHALLENGER expedition. Credit: Sailing for Science - the NOAA Fleet Then and Now.
