  2. Cosmic time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_time

    Cosmic time [4] [5] is a measure of time by a physical clock with zero peculiar velocity in the absence of matter over-/under-densities (to prevent time dilation due to relativistic effects or confusions caused by expansion of the universe). Unlike other measures of time such as temperature, redshift, particle horizon, or Hubble horizon, the ...

  3. Calculagraph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculagraph

    Calculagraph. The Calculagraph is a device which mechanically calculates and prints the elapsed time between two events. Their best known, earliest use was as a means of tracking of table usage in pool halls. Later, until the advent of the digital era, they became the standard way to clock the duration of toll telephone calls.

  4. Proper time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_time

    Proper time. In relativity, proper time (from Latin, meaning own time) along a timelike world line is defined as the time as measured by a clock following that line. The proper time interval between two events on a world line is the change in proper time, which is independent of coordinates, and is a Lorentz scalar. [1]

  5. Time clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_clock

    Time clock. A time clock, sometimes known as a clock card machine, punch clock, or time recorder, is a device that records start and end times for hourly employees (or those on flexi-time) at a place of business. In mechanical time clocks, this was accomplished by inserting a heavy paper card, called a time card, into a slot on the time clock.

  6. Nocturnal (instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nocturnal_(instrument)

    A nocturnal is an instrument used to determine the local time based on the position of a star in the night sky relative to the pole star. As a result of the Earth's rotation, any fixed star makes a full revolution around the pole star in 23 hours and 56 minutes and therefore can be used as an hour hand. The 4-minute difference between the solar ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_Schickard

    Wilhelm Schickard. Wilhelm Schickard is holding a hand planetarium (or orrery) of his own invention. It was painted in 1632, 8 years after his last calculating clock drawing. Wilhelm Schickard (22 April 1592 – 24 October 1635) was a German professor of Hebrew and astronomy who became famous in the second part of the 20th century after Franz ...
