What Does TAI Stand For?

TAI stands for International Atomic Time

TAI, or International Atomic Time, is a high-precision time standard that serves as the basis for Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). It is determined using a network of atomic clocks located around the world, providing an accurate and stable measure of time based on the vibrations of atoms. TAI is expressed in seconds and is not subject to leap seconds, making it a continuously running time scale essential for global timekeeping and synchronization in various fields, including navigation, telecommunications, and scientific research.
