Subject: [time-nuts] UTC and the speed of light?
How is the speed of light accounted for in the definition of UTC?
In other words, how did they solve the conflict where on one hand we'd all
expect two "perfect" clocks to "tick" at the same time but wether they do
depends on the location of the observer?
No, but the position of the clocks used to measure TAI on which UTC is
based is taken into account with the definition of TAI.
"TAI is a coordinate time scale defined in a geocentric reference frame
with the SI second as realized on the rotating geoid as the scale unit"
