They will probably be able to just search what that clock was build for and that’s it. Just think about how you learn history wich was rather recently. I can just buy speak from my experience but when we learn about Hitler and the second world war we have every information there are some things lost but nowadays everything is archived somewhere in the web. And future generations can access these information. Historians just need to put those informations together for the majority of people to find it in one place. But our civilization won’t be as interesting as the old Greeks.

      Hanro50 the whole concept is really irritating me. If humans live here n 10000 years they will probably be way more advanced than us. But their historical understandings of our time could be at 100%. Everything that happens in our time is archived in n the internet. And the internet won’t disappear all of the sudden. The only reason this clock makes sense is when humans fall back into Middle Ages. Through some kind of apocalypse and even then what are they going to do with it they see it and then what probably make a religion out of it. And if that clock breaks they think the world is going to end.

      It only has to be manually wound to show the time, but it keeps the time internally on its own power. So if nobody winds it for 1000 years, somebody that shows up and winds it will get it working again, and it will automatically update its face to the correct time without having to be set or corrected.

      Agreed, even a broken clock is correct more often than a mis-calibrated clock. Jeff Bezos has said the Long Now Clock calibrates with Solar Noon ... just a guess, but most likely on either the Winter or Summer Solstice. The 'calibrating light' travels down a shaft drilled in the mountain to a sensor on the clock (the engineers were influenced by Stonehenge). The 'Equation of Time' is location based and uses the Analemma Curve, so calibration depends on the specific location of the clock itself (Longitude and Latitude). Yes, yes ...despite what current mainstream thought indicates, a sun dial is the most accurate clock. The big assumption of the Long Now Clock is stable geography for 10,000 years ...

    Using the wobble of the earth, the North Star provides a point on a circle in the sky that can be used to represents an analog clock. This axial precession takes about 25,771.5 and if we would think of there being an enormous 12 hour analog clock in the sky each "hour", dividing by 12, would take about 2,148 years, or 1° along this circle every 72 years. A tunnel could be cut facing the axial north and a face for this "clock" could be fixed into the walls of the tunnel which would provide accuracy in 72 year increments. It would be accurate as it has no moving parts and the wobble of the earth is frictionless, so there is nothing that could wear out. I recommend adding this to the chamber made for your clock. In about 13,000 years Vega will be the new "North Star".

    Maybe it is time to work out the equation of time for a clock on Mars? With a nearly 40 minute longer day, a 687 day long year and two moons it would make a nice competition to produce a complicated mechanical watch for budding astronauts...

    Dosn't the clock loose time if the weights aren't lifted up constantly it should use a solar powered windup system to constantly keep it wound up and then use the kinetic energy only at night and when there is no sun

    it seems like very few people would be able to visit the clock. But we have seen nothing on the power source from temperature or the functioning of the escapement. I am interested in making the clock extremely accurate. And I would like to help correct the designs when they run into trouble. long-term thinking however does not make better organizational politics. It's unclear what's happening so far. It looks like they dug the hole and put it all together about a year ago. It would be fun to have more updates on the design. It's very important to video log these events because no one will be able to do that after the fact

    They already have a super accurate clock that will never lose time, it's called an atomic clock and it's based on the spin of a cesium atom, and it's specifically what the scientific definition of a second is based on.

    • @aleksandersuur9475
      @aleksandersuur9475 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      How accurate a clock is and how long it will keep working are very different things. And while cesium clocks are the definition of a second, they are not the most accurate clocks anymore. More accurate atomic clocks have since been developed and optical clocks can be up to million times more accurate than cesium clocks. At the moment though unlike cesium clocks you can't just buy them as ready made piece of equipment for your lab. Once the technology is sufficiently developed the definition of a second will probably be redefined to an optical clock.

    Anyone hear noticing a correlation between the new clock Jess Bezo's has built in the Sierra Diablo mountains and how they are almost perfectly in line with the great Pyramids of Giza? All along the equator. They both have the direction face of North to south and of course both used to tell time and energy. Apparently one of the reasons they thought this would be a good place was becauses its home to "bristlecone pine tree found in the higher mountains of California, Nevada, and Utah.[3] Methuselah is a bristlecone pine that is 4,854 years old and has been credited as the oldest known living non-clonal organism on Earth" -- Interesting right? almost as old as the pyrimids of giza. Anyone else wondering how there are so many connections? It also happens to be part of the "Great Basin National Park" so water flowing directly under Jeff's mountain... ""@brokentablespodcast The massive vibrations shown in the animation from below came from the underground section that was full of water from the underground rivers. The water would smack the bottom of the pyramid during the electrolysis that was happening. Electrolysis was occuring due to the positively/negatively charged stones known as Anode and Cathode that are still down there today. It's pretty obvious once all the pieces are put together."""
    Someone look into it too before I loose my mind on all the connections!!
