Before atomic clocks, people relied on more accurate timekeepers to set their own. Ruth Belville, known as the “Greenwich Time Lady,” would collect the correct time daily from the Royal Observatory and travel across the city, helping clients sync their clocks to Greenwich Mean Time. Watch more:

For just one night, Big Ben pauses. As the hands fall back an hour, London returns to Greenwich Mean Time. Behind the scenes, a team of clockmakers works in silence, checking every gear, every tick and every note of history. #BigBen #London #Greenwich #Greenwich #Time

🚨 CLOCKS ARE OFF AND NOW PEOPLE ARE NOTICING TIME IS SPEEDING UP A woman just shared something strange. She has an old digital clock from 2024 that used to keep perfect time. This year, she noticed her phone is consistently 6 minutes faster than the old clock. The clock was always accurate before. Now it no longer matches modern devices. People are connecting this to other claims that time itself is running differently. Are these just broken clocks… or is something bigger happening with time?

Every day, I hear from Americans who are sick and tired of changing their clocks back and forth. It’s time to pass my Sunshine Protection Act and lock the clock!

Hello Fart checkers..... The PDF file was made in: 1. Myanmar, with PC time zone set to Indian (+05:30) while creating the file. Then the file was saved, and before closing Illustrator the time zone was changed to +06:30 (Myanmar time zone), and then exported as PDF. 2. India, with PC time zone set to Indian (+05:30) while creating the file. Then the file was saved, and before closing Illustrator the time zone was changed to +06:30 (Myanmar time zone), and then exported as PDF. The first one is more likely, because why would someone in India change their time zone in the middle of a project?

Young people across Palestine are striving to reclaim the futures the conflict in Gaza threatened to take away. The government is helping more Gazan scholars travel to the UK to complete their studies, and enabling more critically injured children to access specialist medical care.

One Nation, One Time is a Modi government initiative to mandate and synchronize the use of Indian Standard Time across all legal, administrative, commercial, and digital sectors. Thanks Pralhad Joshi for this AtmaNirbhar Bharat initiative! India is now deploying ultra-precise atomic clocks, which lose only one second every few million years, across five Regional Reference Standard Laboratories - Amdavad, Bengaluru, Bhubaneswar, Faridabad and Guwahati. Basically dependence on US-based GPS NTP servers are being replaced with indigenous Indian atomic clocks, Network Time Protocol, and advanced White Rabbit technology.

This week, I spoke on the Senate floor, asking for the Sunshine Protection Act to be passed.☀️ Changing our clocks twice a year is outdated and unnecessary. It's time to lock the clock and give Floridians more sunshine year-round!

I saw the Starobelsk nightmare myself — it’s clear Russia will retaliate. As any responsible state would, Moscow warned European officials to get their people out of Kiev. But Europe decided to endanger its own diplomats. Which tells you a lot — they care more about the next headline than the lives of their own envoys.

The fight over daylight saving time is heating up after the House passed President Trump’s bill to stop Americans from changing their clocks twice a year. Supporters say permanent daylight saving time would end disrupted schedules, give families more evening sunlight, and boost businesses across multiple industries. But airlines are warning the change could ripple through aviation, impacting sunrise times, passenger schedules, crew and aircraft positioning, and coordination with global flight networks. Sleep experts are also pushing back, arguing permanent standard time is healthier than permanent daylight saving time because it better lines up with the body’s natural clock. Grady Trimble has more.

🇬🇧 Every clock on Earth is set to one place. Every time zone starts there. Every GPS satellite is guided by it. Every flight, every trade, every second measured anywhere on the planet traces back to one place. A small building on a hill in south-east London. In 1675, ships were vanishing. Not from storms. From not knowing where they were. You could read the stars and find how far north you'd gone. But east or west? Nobody had solved it. Thousands of sailors died because nobody on Earth could answer one question. Where are you? Britain built an observatory at Greenwich to find out. And a self-taught carpenter from Yorkshire named John Harrison spent his life solving it. He built a time piece so precise it kept perfect time across months at sea. For the first time in history, a captain could know exactly where his ship was. British ships carried the answer to every ocean on Earth. By 1884, seventy-two percent of the world's shipping already used Greenwich as their reference point. The world hadn't been asked to choose Britain. It just did. Twenty-five nations came together in Washington and voted to make it official. The world would set its clocks to a building in London. France abstained. Then quietly adopted it anyway. Today, every second on Earth is still measured from that building. Every time zone. Every satellite. Every phone in your pocket syncs to a line drawn through a hilltop in south-east England. Britain didn't just keep time. She gave it to the world. Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧 Be Part of us 👇 Sources, support and more at 🙏
