Telling time on the Moon

"Clocks on the Moon run faster than their terrestrial equivalents – gaining
around 56 microseconds or millionths of a second per day. Their exact rate
depends on their position on the Moon, ticking differently on the lunar surface
than from orbit."

I didn't know that!

David there is a magazine in the US called GNSS and they have had 2
articles on navigation and timing. It is very interesting.
Great subject to think about.
