Four Kinds of Time The Observer's Handbook for 1942~a publication which ought w be in the hands of every amateur astronomer-has a brief account of ins different kinds of time now‘ Ln practical use. 1() Apparent Time is given us by the sun-dial. Apparent noon is shown by the sun m-ossing the mo- ridlnn, or in other words" being due south." Apparent time is there- fore measured by the degrees that the sun ls east or west of the me- ridian. But the interval between two successive apparent noons is never constant. as you may find by comparin a. sundial with an exact ohronome r or watch. As s clock cannot be constructed to keep ap- parent time, rnean time is used. (2) Mean Time: the lcngih orf the mean day is the average of all the apparent days throughout the year. The real sun moves. at vary- ing rates, about the ecliptic in one year. an imaginary mean sun is considered as moving uniformly round the celestial equator in one year. (Mean is an old word for average). The difference between the tmes when the real sun and tlie mean sun cross the meridian, is called the Equation of Time: or we might put it. Apparent Time minus Mean Time equals Equation of 'I‘ime. The E. of T. is the correction which is applied to the sun-dial to give the local mean time, 5nd the 0b- server's Handbook contains a use- ful table or such corrections. (3) The third variety is Sldereal Time and is determined from the stars. “In accurate time-keeping," says the Handbook. “the moment when a star is on the meridian is observed and the col-res nding mean time is computed wth the assistance of the Nautical Alma- nac." Sidereal time is probably the most accurate of all. .44 ‘ .- Time: In everyday life we use still another kind of m time.
