A couple of things I've read about recently have to do with parallax and the earth. Astronomers take pictures of stars as the earth goes around the sun and measure how much they move relative to the field of stars to help us know how far away certain stars are. It's where the distance of a parsec comes from, parallax of one arcsecond. Measuring light seems like a science thing to me.
Also related to that Galileo realized that you could use Jupiter's moons to tell time except it ended up being off sometimes. This of course happens because the distance between earth and Jupiter can vary and light does take time to get here. Measuring the speed of light seems like a science thing as well.
