Why Rothera has its own time
Antarctica spans 10 time zones, so the answer depends on where in it you mean. Rothera covers rothera and is 15 hours behind McMurdo, which is the zone most people mean by “the time in Antarctica”.
Rothera does not observe daylight saving, so its offset from UTC never moves. Its relationship to places that do change shifts twice a year instead.
