Generation

# Time Zones Time zones are regions of Earth that observe the same standard time, created to account for the planet's rotation and varying positions of the sun. The Earth is divided into 24 time zones, each generally spanning 15 degrees of longitude, since the planet rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours. **Key Formula:** - **Longitude difference ÷ 15° = Time difference in hours** - Or: **360° ÷ 24 hours = 15° per hour** When traveling east, time moves forward; when traveling west, time moves backward relative to your starting point.
