In 2001, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mars-one.com\/\">Mars One<\/a>, a non-government organisation began planning a mission to send humans to permanently reside on the big red giant. How does this relate to time you may ask? Whilst the astronauts will have issues to deal with such as learning to live and adapt to the environment, they will also need to get used to the structure of the day and telling the time.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a preview of whats ahead for our future:<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=uUldzlfuGww<\/p>\n<h3>Telling Time on Mars<\/h3>\n<p>A day on Mars consists of 24 hours and 37 minutes, compared to earth which means that a watch that functions and tells the time on earth might not be able to do the same on Mars. Other elements to take into consideration would be that normal watches would struggle to tell the time during weightless periods during flight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.anicorn-watches.com\/\">Anicorn<\/a>, a watch company based in Hong Kong, have teamed up with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/\">NASA<\/a> to create a limited edition piece which represents the 60th anniversary of exploring space. We know that from Albert Einstein&#8217;s theory of relativity that time passes slower when travelling at the speed of light compared to earth. Their collaboration produced a watch that can measure this time dilation. This watch is not only highly functional but also incredibly stylish, featuring a white and blue minimalist look.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13746\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048.jpg\" alt=\"telling time on mars\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-1110x739.jpg 1110w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-930x619.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-750x499.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-510x339.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/DSC_9774_2048x2048-120x80.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This breath taking watch is limited to only 60 pieces and were only available to pre-order, however it was recently it was revealed that this watch is now completely sold out!
