Time
The world is divided into 24
time zones. The NASA
Space Academy has a nice brief description of
UTC and GMT.
Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) is the time standard used today throughout the world.
The previous standard was Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Official Time.
This is the official U.S. Government Time Site, a joint venture of
the National Institute of Standards and technology (NIST) and the United
States Naval Observatory (USNO). It is a beautiful site. You select a U.S.
Time Zone and the time is displayed for that zone and updated each second
on your screen (if Java enabled). The time is accurate to within one
second. |
- You can also download a
free program
from NIST that will automatically sync your PC/Mac clock to the
official U.S. Time for your time zone. You can control whether to do
this manually or automatically.
- They also have a
Time Exhibits
page with links to interesting sites with time topics including the
history of time in the world.
