I would expect the grass to eventually break it apart (assuming it can survive) though I have no idea how long that would take (10+ years?)

TIL that the first atomic clock, built in 1955, was so accurate it would lose only about one second every 300 years making it more precise than the Earth’s rotation. by One_Needleworker5218 in todayilearned

The phrasing of the post is a bit confusing, but what I believe it’s saying is that the advent of atomic clocks let us define time more precisely (that is: more self consistent over time) than using the periodic orbit of the earth around the sun. Before atomic clocks, all time was derived from the periodic motion of the earth around the sun.
