his model takes us back to the origins of time telling by looking at the celestial bodies, as our ancestors did. To read the time, you will need to watch the planet-shaped hands move and identify their positions relative to the Sun and to each other, as you enjoy this incredible cosmic dance against myriad sparkling stars in the background.

The idea behind the initial Raketa Copernicus design, back in the 1960s, was that the larger circle (the minute hand) would symbolise the Earth and the smaller circle (the hour hand) Jupiter. These two planets were chosen because the Earth revolves around the Sun in 1 year, and Jupiter in 12 years, which is the same speed ratio as for the minute and hour hands (taking 1 hour and 12 hours, respectively, to revolve around the dial).
