@dgoldsmith Although it feels a little impractical to keep creating new standards for every celestial body we visit, perhaps we need a new standard somehow independent of general relativity... how about "Stardate"? 🖖

@michaelbradley @dgoldsmith @pglpm @michaelbradley Great paper! I'd never heard of the journal before. |
@michaelbradley I don't think we're going to be visiting that many celestial bodies, so I'm not worried about that.
You still need to define the relationship between the various time standards. UTC is basically "stardate" already; LTC will be defined relative to UTC.
