Content: But while it might be 3pm on Tuesday in Japan, six hours west near the US west coast it's 9am (six hours earlier) on Wednesday. This is because, traveling right around the world, across the Americas, back across Africa and Asia, in an instant, you'd lose another 18 hours on the way back to Japan, and 18 hours before 9am Wednesday is 3pm Tuesday, which is the correct time for Japan. It's a real effect as you travel at normal speeds too. The sun passes overhead one more time traveling around the world West to East, and one less time traveling East to West. You experience the wrong number of days compared to the people who stay home, as each "day" of yours is longer or shorter by the distances you travel. The date line itself sits out the middle of the pacific, where as few people as possible have to cross it on a regular basis. Zig-zagging a bit to get through the Bearing Strait, and keep New Zealand and United States islands on the correct side of it for convenience. Related Answer
