Space missions confront unique timekeeping challenges, as travelers orbit Earth at high speeds and may move between gravitational fields. Crew members typically synchronize with mission control via UTC, but the sensation of day and night cycles can shift dramatically. Mars rovers operate on “sols,” slightly longer than Earth days.

Time, in space, is anything but straightforward.
