A stormglass is a mysterious weather predictor that has been in use since 1750. Admiral Fitzroy, the famous sailor and meteorologist, used a stormglass aboard the HMS Beagle during his historic voyage with Charles Darwin.

After 250 years, how the stormglass works is still a mystery but it is believed that it has to do with the electromagnetic changes caused by the weather and sun storms. The appearance of the crystals inside the glass indicates changes in the weather.
