Did Andres Celsius invent or improve the thermometer?
Swedish scientist Anders Celsius neither invented nor improved the thermometer. What he did, in 1742, was to propose a thermomenter scale with 100 divisions between water's boiling point and its freezing point. The scale developed by Celsius was actually the reverse of the scale we use today. He placed 0 at water's boiling point and 100 at its freezing point.
