White House directs NASA to establish a time standard for the moon
On Tuesday, the White House directed NASA to establish a unified time standard for the moon and other celestial bodies.
‘WHY DO people live on Earth?’: Earth appears over the lunar horizon as the ‘Apollo 11’ command module comes into view of the moon, before Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin Jr. leave in the lunar module, to become the first men to walk on the moon’s surface on July 20, 1969.
