- It's also weird the time on the moon would have to account for variations in earth rotatoin speed (as UTC does)
- Time on the moon actually goes slower due to relativistic effect - the effect is small (in tens of microseconds per day) but measurable.
- reportgunner 4y agoYes the article states that the time goes slower on the moon but 56 microseconds every day is negligible. (there is 1000000 microseconds in every second) We can surely skip one second every 27 years on the moon if we are able to add 1 day every 4 years on earth.
