By the year 10000, hopefully terrestial time is long obsolete, and replaced with whatever makes sense for a multi-planet species.

- skriticos2 9y agoBased upon human stubbornness, every planet will have it's own time and date system that will be divided based on historically obscure details before/during and after colonization. Stuff like Thursday is essentially "Thor's day" and in German it literally says "day of the thunder" (Donnerstag). ps.: Thursday is also Jupiter's day, so it will probably prevail on any colony / permanent human station orbiting it/it's moons. pps.: I hope they get over the stupid imperial vs. metric divide though.. that one is really annoying.
