It still blows my mind that there is a gigantic rock that weighs (theoretically) approximately 7.3476× 10^22 kilograms (which is simply put extremely heavy) rotates around the Earth’s atmosphere and we just thinks it’s perfectly normal.
Contrary to popular belief actually isn’t a “dark side of the moon” because the moon itself rotates on its own axis, the same way the Earth does.
In 1970 a company called Helbros Watches asked a man named Kenneth Franklin to create a watch for astronauts so that they could measure time in what is called “lunations”. For this Franklin he created something known as the “Lunar means solar time” also known as “Lunar time” which he created time zones similar to the time zones on Earth with the only key difference being that the meridians in which these time zones based on are 12-degrees as compared to the Earth’s time zones that are 15-degrees.
Great photos and thanks for the info! Good job!
