tomorrow will mark the 26th ‘leap second’ in history. Back in 1972, this correctional system was implemented to account for the Earth’s slowing rotation, primarily caused by the moon’s tug on our planet. Without it, atomic clocks would slowly become thrown off, ever so slightly. Although the leap second could theoretically be used to add or subtract one second, all have been of the ‘positive’ variety.
The earth's rotation is slowing now? Great, we're all gonna die because of this supreme court case.
