    I think these videos are important in teaching how hard it is, how much work and intelligence it takes to create even the ancient forms of things we take for granted. Nobody in the modern world is smarter, we just have systems to build on the works of the geniuses before.

    May 18, 2022 - I enjoyed your well done video very much. If you create a "Part 2" maybe mention a couple of things: The French once tried to metric time keeping, proposing 100 seconds to a minute and 100 minutes to an hour. The Japanese used temporal time, meaning the length of hours changed by the season . In 2022 plus, the strive for time pushes on with thinner automatic watches and an even more accurate "Optical Clock" proposal, working with a laser cooled Mercury ion! Take your time and take care!

I truly hope that you have a good and fun job because you where and still are(evident by the quality of this video)good at making youtube videos. I know that you won't make anymore videos due to the fact that you've gotten older and have a way more time consuming job then before(I suppose). Ether way, I hope you are doing fine and that you are doing what you love. Cheers, from an unknown person!

    Even though they were just much more accurate clocks/"pocket watches", I think you should have mentioned John Harrison and his marine chronometers, as they are probably the most important mechanical timekeepers in history. Otherwise nice video.

    Maybe more important than the invention of a device which is used to track time, Midol certainly has its place among the greatest inventions in history. Used appropriately, could possibly prevent one from commenting on a subject they obviously know nothing about when their "time of the month" ,which happens to be more accurate than your concept of what a marine chronometer actually is, comes into play and the need to express something ill informed becomes a priority. From, I dare say the wiki, " A marine chronometer is a timepiece that is precise and accurate enough to be used as a portable time standard". Your definition of chronometer did not take its meaning until much after the time period of which John Harrison's marine chronometer had been invented. And yes, John Harrison had several unique inventions in the design of a mechanical time keeping device to improve upon the accuracy of what was available at the time and for the purpose of why he made it. Making the seas safer to navigate is no doubt worth its place in timekeeper's history. I suggest you heed your own advice. Pathetic fuck!

    Your image with a cooling tower and atom implies radioactivity is used in atomic clocks. It is not. Atomic clocks do not use any ionizing radiation or any nuclear reactions. Cesium 133, which atomic clocks use, is not radioactive. Even so, Cs is nothing to mess with, being very active chemically.

    Wednesday, April 13, 2022 CE 02:43 EST My idea for a clock would have been this: 1) A luminescent rock next to the leg of a sundial 2) Time markings on the leg of the sundial, fewer of which you see as the rock's glow decays through the night It's like a thermometer but probably more accurate and easier to make from scratch
