According to the IERS, today, for the first time since the
establishment of the modern definition of UTC in 1973, the quantity
UT1-UTC crosses zero while increasing.  If this continues we will have
a negative leap second, probably some time in the 2030s.

If you project the modern definition of UTC back in time, the last time
this would have happened was in 1894.
