Travel

We boarded a flight in Boston to JFK in New York and then boarded an Air China flight for a 13 hour flight to Beijing. We travelled 6800miles and passes through many timezones. There is a 12 hour difference in time between Medway and Beijing. This means that when school began today at 7:35, it was 8:35 at night local time in Beijing on November 4th.

Question: What do timezones have to do with the rotation of the earth?
