Even within a Psych Brain Neuroscientist Psychologist Psychology Shirt tee, there were differences in the calendars. In 1929, Mainland China switched to using standard GMT+8 time (120 degrees east longitude) for astronomical calculations. However, British-ruled Hong Kong continued to follow Beijing local time (116.42 deg), which made Hong Kong’s lunar calendar 14 minutes 20 seconds behind the mainland’s. This became a problem in 1978: In Hong Kong, the new moon that marked the start of the 8th month occurred just before midnight at 11:53pm on September 2. On the mainland, though, this occurred after midnight at 12:07am on September 3. Thus, the Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋節), which occurs on the 15th day of the 8th month, was celebrated on different days, September 16 and 17, between the two sides in 1978, causing much confusion. To prevent future problems, Hong Kong immediately switched to the GMT+8 (now UTC+8) system.
