Time Capsule Nightlife

Pendulum

Ever wonder where the future will take you? This week, NightLife thinks deep about time and what it means to us all.

Hear fascinating insights from Alexander Rose of the Long Now Foundation, an SF-based organization that encourages long-term thinking and ideas.

Plus, sip on time-inspired craft cocktails from Long Now's Interval Bar.

Discover how the Ferry Building's famous clock never misses a beat with the time-tuning gurus from Dorian Clair Antique Clock Repair, and see a time-treasured display of antique clocks.

Using gathered materials, create an artistic 3D model of how YOU perceive time with SCRAP-let your imagination be your guide!

Dig deep into the past with Stanford Archeology Center and touch rare artifacts while learning about the Inca lunisolar calendar.

Discuss time relativity with Academy astronomers, then catch the Academy's latest in-house planetarium show Habitat Earth.

Does Earth move or do we? Find the answers by grabbing a spot around the Academy's Foucault pendulum to learn about our planet's rotation over time.

Be sure to make a contribution to NightLife's very own time capsule-to be opened by a future generation of science lovers.

21 and over.
