Your cousin just moved to Korea, and you'd like to go visit himand see the place. You leave Chicago by plane in the midmorning, local time. When you get to Korea and turn offairplane mode on your phone, the clock updates the time. Youtext your family back in Chicago to tell them you arrivedsafely. In the conversation you figure out that your clocksno longer show the same time. What's weirder, the date inKorea is a day later than when you left Chicago. Whathappened? You sort of lost track of time because you fellasleep on the plane, but you know that you weren't in the air formore than 24 hours! Explain these two mysteries.
