Rare photographic zenith tube, PZT, which provided almost exact measurement of astronomical time, had been installed at Dominion Ob­servatory, Priddis, Alberta, Canada. It would be used in conjunction with another PZT at Royal Greenwich Observatory near Herstmonceux, U.K., to study continental drift by establishing exact measurements be­tween two points on same latitude and observing whether distance changed with time.
