Atomic clock at an observatory C016 / 7637
Atomic clock. A scientist checking an atomic clock at a radio telescope observatory. There are two clocks shown here, the one on the left (marked zvyezdnoye vryemya ) gives sidereal time, the one on the right (marked solnyechnoye vryemya ) gives solar time. Atomic clocks are used in astronomy for very precise synchronisation of observations made from different sites. Photographed at the Mount Aragats Observatory in Armenia in 1987
