Please refrain from comments which might make the author break the internet again....he really didn't do it the first time...it was just a coincidence.

Jean Bernard Leon Focault was born on September 19, 1819. He was a French scientist who worked in the area of physics. Among other things, he was the first scientist to photograph the sun. Additionally, he measured the speed of light in a laboratory using rotating mirrors. She showed that humans have binocular vision, that the brain combines the images from the two eyes into a single image.

Focault is credited with improvements on mirrors, lenses, prisms, arc lamps, telescopes, and gyroscopes. He also developed the Focault pendulum, with which he demonstrated the rotation of the Earth.

Focault died on February 11, 1868 in France.

Pendula are neat. Simple. Effective.

Recently the "Taliban" of the American Physical Society, Robert Park, claimed, they do not work. LOL.
