Abstract: Having entered the threshold of manned-space exploration, it is almost incredible that a method of measurement used before the time of Christ is the predominant method of measurement for one of our prime energy resources. Orifice meansurement can be traced back over 4000 years, when the Chaldeans calculated the length of synodic and periodic months by comparing the amount of water passed through an orifice between time intervals of the rising of the sun. Even more incredible is these calculations have been found to be accurate to within a few seconds!
