Episode overview
We experience time passing constantly, but its perception and measurement have evolved over history. From ancient sundials like the gnomon to pendulum clocks and time zones, humans developed ways to coordinate complex societies. Biological rhythms in the body also play a role, while Einstein’s theory of relativity revived the idea of time travel.
