In The Moontime

 Happy Fun GIF by RYAN GILLETT

There are rumours circulating

How lunar ticks are passing time

Our satellite best seen at night

Needs an altered moonclock chime

 

To keep an eye on moonments 

As understood down here on earth

One Earth hour lacks staying power

Times one point three true worth

 

It’s all about the slow Moon axis

And rotation explanation

This means Moontime days are longer

Causing timed procrastination

 

Watches clocks and sundials

Must be read by extra numbers

No more geometric dreams

During moonlight slumbers


"The Sunday Morning Herald

Washington: The White House directed NASA to establish a unified standard of time for the moon and other celestial bodies, as the United States aims to set international norms in space amid a growing lunar race among nations and private companies.

The head of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, according to a memo seen by Reuters, instructed the space agency to work with other parts of the US government to devise a plan by the end of 2026 for setting what it called a Coordinated Lunar Time (LTC).'"
