      cannonoically, they do!

      Consequence of warp speed, even long hours at impulse cause some discrepancy. They time sync with federation beacons after being out of touch for a while.

        Isn’t that what the stardate is for? Since it seems unlikely humans would adopt a wildly confusing system that also doesn’t seem to be related in any way to earth or its culture.

        At least that’s what I always assumed, the stardate is the unified federation calendar.
