    Relativity is exactly the problem, time runs at a different speed on the moon. I have no idea how this is supposed to be handled in software.

    Like if you have a lunar instant of time and an earth time and you want to figure out how much time happened between those two instants, I guess you’ll essentially need to decide on a frame of reference and then take into account relativity as you convert the lunar time to UTC. But I’m not a physicist, I’m not sure if doing that even makes sense.
