[ 1.28s ]

From the serendipity word picked from the random system which is moonlight, in the brainstorm, I researched out that Velocity of light is 3*10^8m/s and Distance from the moon to earth is 3.84*10^8m. Moonlights takes 1.28 seconds from the moon to earth.

My first experiment was about the visibility of moonlight. The second experiment is about the time of moonlight coming from the moon to earth.

I wondered how can time be expressed, in addition to simply looking at the stopwatch and clock, is there any unique way to convey the time of moonlight.

Thus, in Experiment 2, I use a visual representation of this 1.28 seconds.

You are going to see the time of moonlights through this video.

When light changes, every 1.28 seconds past.

 

 

At the first stage, I used a chronometer on the smartphone to document the 1.28 seconds. Then I realized that such an expression was too shallow and could not make a deep impression. After that, I scrapped the first version and made an animated video. The flicker and change of light spots are used to represent the time when the moon shines on the earth.
