Time of the day


The Prague Astronomical Clock or Orloj is a medieval astronomical clock with mechanical and astronomical dials that dates back to 1410.... The clock shows the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displays various other astronomical details.. one of the free tour guides, who had a part in one of the restorations, seemed to know all about the hourly show with figures of the Apostles and the mechanical workings of the clock but seemed woefully unaware about it predicting the end of the world in 2012, nor did he seem to care that it was two min different than my modern casio watch.
