If you do not know what time it is in Asgardia now and cannot find it out from a neighbor or on the website https://asgardia.space, should the Parliament of Asgardia adopt the law on standard time and give you the right to know the time in Asgardia and build in accordance with it to plan and carry out work and leisure in the Space Kingdom of Asgardia?
Context
The Space Kingdom of Asgardia does not have its standard time and is forced to build the work of public and private institutions using the time zones of planet earth. This is not very convenient in the daily work of citizens and parliamentarians in the economic and virtual space - the time of the Space Kingdom of Asgardia. For teamwork and effective planning and solving everyday tasks, you have to spend a lot of effort on synchronizing the time zones adopted on planet Earth.
What the bill does
Asgardia Time Act will not allow any national governmental and private body to carry out and consider events outside the standard time of Asgardia in its work and when considering cases in the courts of Asgardia. Asgardia Time Act, if adopted, it will enter into force in 2019, that is, until the end of 2019. It was presented on the official pages of Asgardia on
Facebook Asgardia General Official on August 16, 2019, and in the personal blog
https://asgardia.space/en/social/posts/90048 at https://asgardia.space, and on August 17, 2019, Dr. Luca Valvo sent the full text for transmission and discussion to the Parliament of Asgardia at AT-227 IX LIB.
What supporters say
Supporters claim that Asgardians standard time does not separate Asgardians from earthly life and the attention of families and businesses, but synchronizes the collective work of all Asgards and structures in the public and private sectors, both on earth and in space.
The standard time of Asgardia is the official national time and is mandatory for the public and private sectors. In the consideration of civil and criminal cases in the courts of Asgardia and its districts, priority is given to events that occurred in the standard time of Asgardia.
This Law on Time binds together events occurring on Earth, Stars, Asgardia.
What opponents say
Opponents counter that :
John Burr
Why not consider a more useful decimal system of, say, ten-hour days, ten minute hours, etc, instead of the sexagesimal system inherited, through the Babylonians, from the ancient Sumerian's?
Patrice Quesnel
I don’t know why the parliament is trying to re-invent the wheel, while there are more pressing matters... Climate change, rogue use of space by some countries, food crisis around the globe, etc.
Odds of passage
The bill attracted Ben Dell, John Carbonez. The project expects a potential discussion of representatives in committees and further voting in the parliament of Asgardia. Considering that the practice of considering the initiatives of the population of Asgardia is not yet widespread in the Parliament of Asgardia and it is unclear what the position of the committees and the practice of the status quo of individual parliamentarians are regarding the bill introduced. Will they hinder its adoption or will it be approved.
