- 13:3313:33, 2 July 2024 diff hist +256 Barometer Added a note about the dating of Torricelli's invention of the barometer. Sources usually say 1643, but as Knowles Middleton (an authority on the history of meteorological instruments) says: "That it was actually performed in 1643 seems highly improbable." Also tweaked the wording describing Berti's barometer, which is not a scientific instrument in the true sense but more of an experiment. Tag: Visual edit
