INTERNATIONAL DATE LINE
The International Date Line largely coincides with the 180th degree of longitude on the surface of the
earth. Yesterday’s date applies if this line is crossed in an easterly direction, and you move into the
next day if it is crossed in a westerly direction. The same date applies throughout the entire world
only once a day, namely at midnight on the International Date Line.
