Time Zones

The times of events in this book are given in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), here abbreviated to Universal Time (UT). This time is equivalent to the time on the Greenwich meridian (GMT), and is used by astronomers around the world so that observations may be compared easily, without having to convert from local (zone) times. Universal Time is always given on a 24-hour clock (sometimes known as ‘military time’ or ‘Zulu’, ‘Z’). In many countries times are generally given as a.m. or p.m. and such times are shown on the charts showing the appearance of the sky for each month. Giving the times of individual events as a.m. or p.m. would be complex and confusing, so those times may need to be converted from UT.
