Standard Interstellar Time

Standard Interstellar Time is the Universal Time Standard that is widely used across the colonies. Each planet works on multiple time standards based on revolutions usually based on a 24 hour standard, solar rotations, and julian years for keeping in alignment with the other planets within a system, as well as other planets.

Time usually is standardized as hours/days/sol-rotation/year. However all vessels that operate as part of both the Merchant Marines and the Armed forces operate on Sol Time which uses Earth Standard Time (EST) which replaced Eastern Standard Time in 2093. As such many vessels have a off-time to other planets and usually adjust all clocks when in various systems. However, SIT has become the standard across nearly all planets and usually require an adjustments to solar rotations.
