The last day of #photOctober2023 and the theme is science. I've gone for a historical vibe, with this orrery (mechanical model of the solar system) from 1799.
It is, obviously, not 100% accurate in terms of our current understanding of the solar system, but it is a lovely thing and was showing cutting edge astronomical knowledge when it was made.
