@miscellaneous: the sunlight is focused by the sphere and it burns marks on the piece of paper. you can read from the paper (it has a scale) how long the sphere was exposed to the sun rays and how strong they were.

the device is called the Campbell-Stokes recorder

I imagine that these have been replaced by a photocell, but very a cool device.
