Hi everyone,

If you haven't already, you might want to check out the first part of the
documentary "Precision: the measure of all things". It's about the
measurement of time and length, featuring the topic of sundials. There's an
interesting theory about how the day got split into 12 hours because this
number is highly divisible (but why not 60?). I just watched it on Da Vinci
Learning.
