Jesse Ramsden (1735-1800) was a well-known manufacturer of meteorological instruments, famous not only in London, where he learned his trade, but around the world where many astronomical observatories were equipped with his tools.

When it was discovered, that changes of atmospheric pressure are connected to changes of weather, barometers became very popular. Evangelista Torricelli (1608-1647), mathematician and physicist, Galileo’s disciple, was the fist one in 1643 to make an instrument for measure changes of air pressure.
