Witness the Time Ball Drop at Greenwich Observatory
The Greenwich Time Ball is a historic landmark that has been dropping at 1pm every day since 1833. It is one of the world's earliest public time signals, and it was originally used to help ships on the Thames set their chronometers. Today, it is a popular tourist attraction and a reminder of Greenwich's role as the birthplace of modern timekeeping.
The ball is a bright red sphere that is 3 feet in diameter. It is raised to the top of its mast at 12:55pm, and then it drops at exactly 1pm. The drop is synchronized with the atomic clock at the National Physical Laboratory, so you can be sure that it is the most accurate time in the world.
The ball drop is a free event, and it is open to the public. You can watch it from the Observatory grounds, or you can take a boat ride on the Thames and see it from the water.
