PIX4669127: Dial of the Tower of the Clock - Auxerre - Clock on the clock tower in Auxerre - Clock with dials of the Tower of the Clock in Auxerre.

The clock consists of two identical dials, one to the east (photo), the other to the west. The dials are divided into 24 hours: from noon to midnight, and from midnight to noon. A needle on which the Sun is depicted indicates the hours of the day. The second hand carries a globe with half black and half gold. This globe indicates the phases of the Moon. This needle indicates the lunar day, which is 24h49min. The stars pass to the Meridian (towards the south) when their image is at the top of the dial, on the number XII.

PIX4669179: The Earth and the Moon seen from space as it could appear from a satellite place at 35,000 km altitude. Composite image based on GOES (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite) data for clouds and Terra satellite for surface - This true-color image shows North and South America as they would appear from space 35,000 km (22,000 miles) above the Earth. The image is a combination of data from two satellites. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument aboard Nasa's Terra satellite collected the land surface data over 16 days, while Noaa's Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) produced a snapshot of the Earth's clouds: Earth seen by satellite - Earth seen by satellite / Bridgeman Images
