Unveiled the Chronophage Corpus Clock at Corpus Christi

In September 2008, the renowned physicist Stephen Hawking unveiled the Corpus Clock at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. This remarkable timepiece, designed by inventor John Taylor, features a unique mechanical 'Chronophage' or 'time-eating' creature that symbolizes the relentless passage of time. The clock is not only a functional timekeeper but also a work of art, showcasing intricate craftsmanship and innovative engineering. The Chronophage, which appears to devour time, serves as a reminder of the fleeting nature of existence. The Corpus Clock has become a significant attraction for visitors and students alike, embodying the spirit of inquiry and discovery that characterizes Cambridge University. Its unveiling marked a notable moment in the intersection of science, art, and education, reflecting Hawking's enduring legacy in the scientific community. The clock continues to inspire curiosity and contemplation about the nature of time and our place within it. #mooflife #mof #MomentOfLife #CorpusClock #StephenHawking #Chronophage #CambridgeUniversity #Timekeeping
