| 41. | This ideal mean solar time has been used ever since then to describe the motions of the planets, Moon, and Sun.
|
| 42. | Two types of solar time are apparent solar time ( sundial time ) and mean solar time ( clock time ).
|
| 43. | Times in the Almanac were in apparent solar time, because time aboard ship was most often determined by observing the Sun.
|
| 44. | Two types of solar time are apparent solar time ( sundial time ) and mean solar time ( clock time ).
|
| 45. | The clock time in this zone is based on mean solar time at the 135th meridian west of the Greenwich Observatory.
|
| 46. | UTC represents the mean solar time at the meridian, which is kept by the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures in France.
|
| 47. | Secondly, the solar time must be corrected for the longitude of the sundial relative to the longitude of the official time zone.
|
| 48. | The westernmost point in Norway proper is on 4?92 E longitude, meaning 42 minutes difference between mean solar time and official time.
|
| 49. | An analemma may be added to many types of sundials to correct apparent solar time to mean solar time or another standard time.
|
| 50. | An analemma may be added to many types of sundials to correct apparent solar time to mean solar time or another standard time.
