|
281 # "in the US Camp (East Camp) we have been on New Zealand (McMurdo) |
|
282 # time, which is 12 hours ahead of GMT. The Russian Station Vostok was |
|
283 # 6 hours behind that (although only 2 miles away, i.e. 6 hours ahead |
|
284 # of GMT). This is a time zone I think two hours east of Moscow. The |
|
285 # natural time zone is in between the two: 8 hours ahead of GMT." |

286 # |
|
287 # From Paul Eggert (2001-05-04): |
|
288 # This seems to be hopelessly confusing, so I asked Lee Hotz about it |
|
289 # in person. He said that some Antarctic locations set their local |
|
290 # time so that noon is the warmest part of the day, and that this |
|
291 # changes during the year and does not necessarily correspond to mean |
|
292 # solar noon. So the Vostok time might have been whatever the clocks |
|
293 # happened to be during their visit. So we still don't really know what time |
|
294 # it is at Vostok. But we'll guess +06. |

354 # We use the same time as McMurdo does. |
|
355 # And they use the same time as Christchurch, NZ does.... |

356 # One last quirk about South Pole time. |
|
357 # All the electric clocks are usually wrong. |
|
358 # Something about the generators running at 60.1hertz or something |

|
361 # Maybe if we let them run fast all of the time, we'd get to leave here sooner!! |
