Time zone

From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.

Time Zones give specific areas on the Earth a time of day that is earlier or later than the neighboring time zones. There are 39 time zones dividing the Earth with different times, each with its own name, like Atlantic Standard Time. The Atlantic Standard Time zone contains large cities like New York.

Greenwich Mean Time is the time in London, and is used as a standard for many things that involve more than one time zone.
