Physics & Glass is the Whipple Museum's tribute to the art of the scientific glassblower. Glass is one of the most important materials in the history of physics, and this new display features some of the highlights of the Whipple's collection of intricate, beautiful glassware, much of it originally made and used at the Cavendish Laboratory of Experimental Physics in the late 19th and early 20th century.
