Sunday Quest, VFK Sundial Quest!
« on: March 12, 2017, 04:10 AM »

VFK Sundial Quest!
7:00 A.M. Pacific Time Sunday, March 12th, 2017 to 10:00 P.M. Pacific Time Monday, March 13th, 2017.

"What Time it is?" Most people just look at their watch and reply to the question with something like "It's 1 o'clock!" or "It's 9 o'clock!" But, what does that mean? What does the "o" mean? Well, actually, in times gone past, having a clock was rare, and people looked to the sun to tell the "time of day," Or what time it was according to the sun. In fact, people had to differentiate time told by the clock to time estimated by the position of the sun. To do this, an answer of "o'clock" meaning "of the clock" meant that the person got their information from the clock and not the sun. In the end, if your clock says 9 and the sun is high overhead in a 12 o'clock position, the sun is the right time. In today's quest, let's look at clocks and time, and how the sun is at the center of it all!

Your reward for completing this quest will be 1,000 credits, and a Mossy Sundial!
