Time altering apparatus

Abstract

Descriptions of time altering apparatuses for removing a need for leap seconds are provided. Currently leap seconds are applied to Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) in order to align UTC with mean solar time. In one embodiment a time measurement system is connected to a gigantic heavy flywheel positioned at at least one of a north rotational pole or south rotational pole of the Earth. The time measurement system may determine a shift of UTC away from mean solar time and may subsequently speed up or slow down the flywheel to adjust a rotational speed of the Earth in order to move UTC back to mean solar time. In a second embodiment a similar time measurement system may raise or lower heavy weights into mine shafts drilled at or near the equator of the Earth for a similar effect. Planetary speed adjustments may be written to a blockchain.
