What is a leap minute?
A Leap Minute is a minute that is added or removed according to what's needed to keep our clocks and calendars in synch with the movement of our planet and the sun. The movement of the Earth around the Sun, and around its own axis, doesn't match up exactly to our clocks and calendars. To prevent the error from growing year after year, Leap days, leap hours, leap minutes, even leap seconds, are regularly added to keep everything in synch.
