    Unlike on Earth, the moon will not have daylight saving time, Coggins said

    I don’t know why but the idea that there might be daylight savings time on the moon is hilarious.

      Maybe if the Moon rotated like Earth it would be a thought but you can’t really save daylight when it’s tidally locked hmmm

      Daylight savings sucks anyway

        Any particular spot on the moon does have a day-night cycle, and the length of that does vary throughout the lunar year. Lunar daylight savings here we come!
