Time is an interesting subject. the study of time has been around for hundreds even thousands of years, from the acient civilizations relying on the stars to know what season was best to plant their crops to dividing time into 12 incriments to measure the day. some to the moste interesting time pieces i have found are the ones of acient history. with the use of sundials and oblisks noted in egyptian history to the use of measuring time with water by the greeks. fascinating. there has always been an innovative spirit in clockmaking throughout history. but one of the discoveries that has shocked me the most was of a french clockmaker who was asked to make a clock work inside a cathederal but instead he remade the entire clock but kept the skelton. this clock is a precise masterpiece of time it can tell you the day in which easter is on every year until the year 10000 and it even as been so carefully calcuated to know the exact secquence of a leap year. not only that in simple terms that a leap year is a year that is divisible by four but that unless it is a 100 year that is an odd number unless its a 400 base year. this clock can predict the lunar time, the average space time and even what zodiac eara we are entering on the 100000 year cycle. this timepiece has been so carefully crafted that there are pieces that will only move every century or even every 2500 years. wow mind blowing. considering that no measure of time has been around so long. not even with the egyptinas and the oblesks. but will we still be using clocks if humanity survives that long. since timekeeping has been modernized to atomical measures. witth the definiton of a second as defined by the way light moves in a certian atom. facinating
