Lietuviu astronomijos žinios siekia akmens amžiu.
Laiko skaiciavimas ir Dievai buvo siejami su dangaus objektais.
Astronominiai stebejimai turejo praktine reikšme to meto
žmogaus gyvenime.
Pirmaji Saules laikrodi Kretingoje 1610 m. pastate J.K.
Chodkevicius. Antrasis Saules kalendorius-laikrodis papuoše
Kretinga 2002 m. rugpjucio 10 d.
Didysis saules kalendoriaus stulpas yra kompozicijos centre. Ji
kerta pagrindine ašis, orientuota šiaures-pietu
kryptimi. Ant šios dienovidžio linijos išdestyti
akmenys su švenciu datomis ir menesio ženklais runomis.
Pagrindinio stulpo šešelis vidurdieni (Kretingos
laiku 12.43 val.) sutampa su dienovidinio ašimi.
Švenciu ir metu laikai skaiciuojami pagal saules spindulio
vieta vidurdieni pagrindineje ašyje. Iš cia
atidedamos saules laikrodžio valandos.
Konteineryje rasite žurnala, pieštuka, moneta,
Maxima kosmini rutuliuka ir FTF "Pathtag'a". Tai nedidele dovanele
pirmam radusiam lobi :)

Lithuanian astronomical knowledge reaches the Stone Age. Timing
and Gods were associated with celestial objects. Astronomical
observations had practical implications for human life at that
time.
The first Sundial in Kretinga was built in 1610 by J.K.
Chodkevicius. The Second Sundial-Astronomic Calendar adorned
Kretinga in August 10, 2002.
The grand Sundial column is in the compsition's center. It
crosses he main axis oriented north-south direction. The stones
with dates of holidays and the month names- runes set on the
meridian line. The shadow of main column at noon (at 12:43 Kretinga
time) coincide with meridian line. Seasons and holidays are
calculated according to Sun radius position on main axis at midday.
From here are set Sundial hours.
In the cache you will find: a logbook, a pencil, a coin, a
Maxima Cosmic bead and a FTF Pathtag. Pathtag is a small gift to
the first who finds a treasure :)
