    Your videos always make my day, Thank you so much Robert. Amazing P2 usage, always a fan of seeing it used creatively and I'd love to see a deluxe show-off version of your Orrery!

    The Antikythera machine, found in an ancient shipwreck, could show us how to build an accurate mechanical orrery! It accurately calculated eclipses, lunar phases, and was a hand-wound gear system.

    This would have been a perfect example for a tarin of gears and a cheaper motor. More complicated. But learning to control motor speed through gear reduction is always a great lesson to teach.

    I'd be tempted to make the Sun big enough to take a button battery and some LEDs around the circumference, in the dark it'd show phases of the moon.
    I think it should be possible, using a stepper motor and a timer, to advance it one step a day, though it might need careful choosing of the gear ratios.

      My thoughts were partly from thinking you live near the coast, so, as moon phases also give tidal info, it'd be kind of nice to give it a bit of extra functionality.
      Hmm I think over time pushing down on a switch will weaken and break the Sun support mount, if it's left as plastic...So...For a deluxe version it'd be nice to also get rid of the separate Sun battery. Maybe concentric metal disks in the base plate, offset in height with the 2, conductive, outer parts of that support matching different lengths. The idea there is to mechanically stop the Sun support itself from spinning and keep the pos/neg feeds going to the right places
      That way an on/off switch could be incorporated somewhere more robust and also it eliminates one battery.

    that's an incredible coincidence that it's a cœlestial clock named after a person whose name starts with "Orrer". Was his childhood nickname Mr. Hourly? 😅 Let me guess, he was said to be the son of Horus?😂
