Henry VIII's astronomical clock at Hampton Palace


The clock shows not only the time and date, but also information re tides and horoscopes.  Note that it also depicts the sun revolving around the earth.  The filming of the video is a little annoying (tilted Hampton Court, unnecessary zooming), but the pre-Copernican part was something I hadn't thought of before.
