Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), the name for mean solar time of the longitude (0°) of the Royal Greenwich Observatory in England. The meridian at this longitude is called the prime meridian or Greenwich meridian. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) has been used to clearly designate epoch by avoiding confusing references to local time systems (zones).
Historically, astronomers used Greenwich Mean Astronomical Time (GMAT), in which the astronomical day began at noon at longitude (0°), in accord with scientific tradition. Universal Time remains in general use in a modified form as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which serves to accommodate the timekeeping differences that arise between atomic time (derived from atomic clocks) and solar time. The term Greenwich Mean Time is still used to represent.
