As we had illustrated in the 1st part of The Science of Time, human understanding of the field has existed for thousands of years. But it wasn’t until the C16 and the breakthroughs which came with the scientific revolution that the concept of time would begin to be truly understood.🧡1/38

In part 3 of the Science of Time, we look at the developments which occurred in the field of time keeping, how discoveries during the scientific revolution influenced our understanding of time, how we measured it and ultimately how we entered the digital era.🧡1/26

In the first part of the Science of Time series we looked at how our early ancestors made the leap from looking at the sky above to considering its importance in the passage of time. We begin today with a more in-depth look at the work of Sosigenes, the Greek philosopher and astronomer. 🧡1/32
