"Even a few years ago, the expectation was that leap seconds would always be positive, and happen more and more often," Duncan Agnew, a geophysicist at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at University of California's San Diego campus, said in a statement. "But if you look at changes in the Earth’s rotation, which is the reason for leap seconds, and break down what causes these changes, it looks like a negative one is quite likely. One second doesn’t sound like much, but in today’s interconnected world, getting the time wrong could lead to huge problems."
