But then it became clear that when the year 2000 finally rolled around all of the computers would think it was actually 00. Or the year 1900.Well, it turns out Hubble has something similar, only Hubble’s clock restarts every 6,213 days, 18 hours, 48 minutes, and 31.875 seconds. Or roughly every 17 years for those of you who like counting.That’s because Hubble’s computers have a different way of tracking time than we have here on the ground. You’d think it would be as simple as synching our ground clocks with Hubble’s personal timepiece, but you’d be surprised. For more information, visit https://nasa.gov/hubble.
