What Is a Unix Timestamp?
A Unix timestamp (also known as Epoch time or POSIX time) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970, excluding leap seconds.
For example:
- 0 = January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC
- 1609459200 = January 1, 2021, 00:00:00 UTC
- 1700000000 = November 14, 2023, 22:13:20 UTC
