History of Science Museum

The History of Science Museum in Geneva was informative and interesting. Starting from the introduction by our tour guide, she gave us a brief background on the house the museum is located in. The United Nations wanted to originally be placed where the current museum is located but if the UN had the spot there would limited green space near the lake for people to walk around. I found the humidity tool to be quite interesting. This tool uses human hair and a needle to measure humidity in the air. I find this tool to be helpful as I have curly hair and humidity is not always my friend.

    It’s amazing how rudimentary yet effective some of those early instruments were.
