@SpurgAnon @kioshi "And if it's really that necessary [for the Moon to have its own time zone], why not go off of Houston time?"
That's what they used to do for the Apollo project. Other countries might have different opinions, BUT! @AmonMaritza got it right:
Gravitational time dilation is a thing, one reason global positioning and time satellite atomic clocks need constant adjustments. Per Wikipedia "24 hours on the Moon [is] 58.7 microseconds faster," which is a lot more than the nanoseconds we hear for those satellites. Has got to come from being so far away from the earth and thus less influenced by its gravity field.
