Be careful when making a count backwards (Countdown) on the night of the arrival of 2,009 years later. For, unlike previous years, beginning late 2009, although later only one second. What causes the new year this time does not come on time? Some scientists are concerned during this time of standardization in the world to find that earth-rotation that will be the cause. The time required for the earth is still used in the determination of the time in hours. Actually, the earth rotation from time to time experienced delays. Disbursements in the polar ice, the core activities of the earth, the sea waves, and the effect of gravity and the sun and moon rotation axis to create change and a slowing 2 milliseconds every day. While the standard time used precision scientists based on the time drop Cesium atoms that only late in the second one 200 million years old. The differences that caused the clock to be adjusted with the atomic clock based on the rotating earth. To ensure the world remains on time, scientists agreed yesterday to add a second at the end of 2008. Additional second set of standardized time world or the International Rotation and Reference Systems Service will be made officially on the night of the new year in Greenwich, England. Greenwich is a reference clock in the world with a GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) or Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
Technically, on the night of the new year, after calculation at 23:59:59 on the reverse will be added before the count 23.59.60 changed to 00:00:00 enter on January 1 2009. 200 atomic clock that spread in 50 laboratories around the world will adjust to these changes. In a statement yesterday, scientists observer groups also reveal the time, the second extra-called leap second is actually not the first time to be done. Since the standardization of time the world agreed on 1972, has made 24 additional seconds. However, just calm, although a second timer, celebration of the new year still the most-awaited wait.
