I can set my camera to take a picture at a predetermined time, so I'm going to shoot my atomic clock. I can also sync my camera clock to the atomic clock. If I miss it I can change the time zone on the clock and try again in an hour.
I'm so excited.

Blasphemer!!
That's a little harsh.
It's synched with an atomic clock in Oxford (or somewhere)
The TRUE atomic clock is in Boulder, Colorado.
