Installation of the 10,000-year-old clock in Texas (Photo Credit: Longnow.org)

Future generations take note — deep inside the heart of a Sierra Diablo mountain, along the Texas-Mexico border, lies a 200-foot-tall, mechanical clock that ticks once a year, has a century hand that advances once every 100 years, and a cuckoo which will emerge once every 1000 years! Meet the 10,000 Year Clock!

            I agree with wolfdog i don't think that clock will last 10,000 years probably if the clock dose not get taken good care of the clock will run out of fuel

                  I don't think it'll tick for 10,000 years, without regular monitoring. Most it'll go without management= 40-50. Probably 70 years.
