Instead of creating a clock why not put the current bitcoin price? This could give bitcoin a price boost and a very unique and viral advertisement.

that's genius Cheesy
but why not set a doge value to mark the moment when Doge reached the moon? Cheesy

Wouldn't need as much power if the lasers came from the orbit of the moon itself. Tongue
Explain why you think that.

I don't think you've thought this through. Fortunately, someone else has.

Hmm... propelling the moon with lasers... Neat!

Searching ebay for some lasers now... Only finding pen lasers... now I need an array of orbiting satellites... They sell those on ebay?

Once you have established a moon colony you can also make an earth clock for the people on the moon.
Wow that's fantastic

It's a nice idea but too complex because of all the times zone, I don't know if it even possible to display correct time for everyone. Then again if it was that easy to make a clock out of it, I think someone would have used it as advertising space by now, it would certainly pay off.

It wouldn't be allowed any way and you would probably get into big trouble with the government for doing it would be a funny idea for someone to place a model of a guy sitting on a chair on the moon.

Then there really is a man on the moon!

Ok maybe we should go up there in my potato spaceship and draw the clock on the moon with some pens and then we just tilt our heads and the clock moves sounds good to me.

P.S. This was intended to be stupidly humorous, not actually a real thing to do.

What's the estimated cost price of your project in BTC?
Have you made a sheet yet to calculate that?

I would love to see a moon clock.  Which timezone will it be linked to?
It takes so much energy to take out my phone every 30 sec and check the clock.
This would be very energy sufficient. Although looking up can also be exhausting.

Hmm... I project about 10 BTC, by the time the project is ready to launch... BTC should be about $850,000/BTC at that time.

Time-zone will be GMT 0:00 since we will also be getting rid of useless time-zones, and thus just become one world-time. (Never have to adjust your watch or ask what is your GMT offset? -5 +10... and  Are you in DST?)

You have a phone that fits in your pocket... OMG, and it has time... What will they think of next... How much does that watch cost you to buy and run every year? This will be free to use, no charge, once built. Tongue

Wait, if you know 30-seconds passed... why would you take out your phone again? Is your short-term memory that short, and your ability to add 30-seconds to the last time you checked, that bad? This will be a great advantage to you... You can save your short memory for things like, remembering to breath, or practicing that math...

Do you not look down at your watch/phone... why would looking up be any harder? The moon isn't directly above you, 95% of the time. If you have trouble finding it, there might just be a cloud in the way, or it is flying over Japan at that time... Use your watch/phone for those times.

P.S. This was intended to be stupidly humorous, not actually a real thing to do.
