I was wondering how well synchronized the camera clock is with the clock used to establish event timing in picking the earthquake arrivals.
There are several seconds between my smart watch time and the network time displayed on my workstation. There are several minutes between those two times which I consider accurate and the time displayed on the battery powered clock on the wall. There are hours between those times and the time displayed on my coffee-maker.
Where does the camera get its time stamp?
- Buttons840 3y agoAre you suggesting that the lights recorded in the video are actually happening during the earthquake? Wouldn't it be easy to tell when the earthquake occured due to camera shaking?
- dylan604 3y agoThe link in this comment[0] shows the camera shaking well before the lights are flashing. Also, you can see the arcs of electricity in the flashes. Lightning is purple not bluish. Human made electrical systems make the bluish color. The flashes do not start until ~20s into the 39s video. How are we even coming close to these being "before" the earthquake?
