Ingolme Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Internally the time is stored as the number of milliseconds that have passed since 1970. That's called a UNIX Timestamp. It's a popular standard to store time. If you need older dates you will need to create your own date object and do the calculations yourself.
