As a rule, Donald Saff doesn’t collect clocks he can’t see inside of. It’s the harmonic entanglement of gears—and the skill needed to craft them—that first lured him to horology, the study of ...
You have heard of Christiaan Huygens, haven’t you? A Dutch astronomer, inventor, physicist and mathematician, Huygens is often considered to be among the best scientific minds to have ever roamed the ...
Scientists may have finally solved a 350-year-old mystery of why pendulum clocks hanging from the same wall synchronise over time. Almost 350 years ago, Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens, inventor of ...
