    The Science of Time
    From: Ed Popko
    Date: 2016 Feb 13, 15:42 -0800

    While following David Pike's post entitled 'Air Cdre John Mitchell'  to the rin.org.uk site, I also found this interesting forthcoming conference posted there on "The Science of Time".

    For those living in New England, it looks to be a worthwhile event.

    Partial quote from the site:

    The Science of Time will be hosted by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, MA (USA).

    Proposed Topics

    The scientific and technical uses of time and time series data
    The civil and scientific understanding of time - education and outreach
    The history of time and timepieces, clocks and calendars
    Social, cultural, and religious uses of timing information
    High-precision time from sundials and the pendulum to atomic clocks and pulsars
    Impact of precise time and frequency measurement in astronomy & basic science
    Earth rotation and time
    Time and solar-system ephemerides
    The physics of time
