How does the international dateline work?

The International Date Line is an imaginary line of longitude of 180 degrees around the Earth. It works when a person crosses the line from the east to the west a day is added. The opposite effect happens when crossing from west to the east with a day subtracted.

Where does a day change to the next?

I love this question. It happens at two places. It happens at the International Dateline, in a sense. At the dateline, it is ALWAYS one day on one side, and another day on the other side. It also happens at "midnight", as midnight moves across the planet's surface each day.

What happens when you travel east across the international dateline?

You "gain" a day - that is, the day shifts to the previous one. So, if it was 11pm on Sunday the 12th, and you crossed eastward over the International Date line, it is now 11pm on Saturday the 11th.


What happens when the ship crosses the international dateline from west to east?

Nothing in particular happens; if you happen to be napping aboard the ship at the moment of crossing, you can sleep right through it, just as you do when crossing any other meridian of longitude. By international agreement, however, your calendar date becomes one less when you cross the International Date Line going east.

International meridian when crossed east to west repeats a day?

The International Date Line is the meridian where the date changes by one day when crossed east to west. This happens in order to account for the time difference between different parts of the world. Crossing the International Date Line from east to west, you "gain" a day, and crossing from west to east, you "lose" a day.


What happens if you pass west over the International Dateline?

If you pass west over the International Date Line, you subtract a day from your calendar. This means that when you cross the line, you effectively move into the previous day. For example, if it’s Monday when you cross, it will become Sunday. This adjustment is necessary to keep the calendar aligned with the Earth's rotation and local time zones.


What happens to degrees when you cross the international date line - We start at 177 32 54 West and we are traveling 33 21 43 westward This crosses the International Date Line which is 180?

If you start at 177 degrees, 32 minutes, and 54 seconds West and you are traveling westward, you will NOT cross the International Date Line. You will cross it only if you travel East, at which point the coordinates from 177 degrees West will become 30 degrees, 12 minutes, and 11 seconds East longitude.
