As of July 1st, the discovery rocket will launch into space at 3:49 exactly of pers. Floridian time. Why is it not rounded time? Couldn't they have launched the rocket at 3:50pm, or waited until 4:00? For many months, the time was set, for July 1st, 2006-- to be launched at exactly 3:49. Why isn't time rounded? AND, the same with Yahoo! Weather. The current weather is renewed at 53 minutes past the hour every hour. Why not rounded? What's upwith that? Please explain and define.
