12:00 PM=Midnight. 12:01 AM would follow. 12AM, I'd think of as noon, until the next minute, when it would switch over to PM.

Every day starts precisely at midnight and A.M. starts immediately after that point in time e.g. 00:00:01 A.M. (see also leap seconds)

To avoid confusion timetables, when scheduling around midnight, prefer to use either 23:59 or 00:01 to avoid confusion as to which day is being referred to.

It is after Noon that P.M. starts e.g. 00:00:01 PM (12:00:01)

So, for the single smallest measurable unit of time, it is still PM when the clock strikes exactly 12:00 midnight. But then it's immediately AM.

Of course they do. It's the most famous observatory in the entire world, and it's in your country.

Skir!

Don't be such a moron. Just because they don't use AM/PM doesn't mean you can go mouthing off about it.

Shut up.

Who would like to wake up on 12:00 AM... I mean seriously. I voted 12:00 PM because it is sunny and I can see where I'm going.

Midnight is actually 00:00 hours.

AM and PM are both confusing terms, 24-hour clock FTW.

It's not a matter of "Thinking" what it is. It IS 12:00PM precisely at midnight. A nanosecond later, it is AM.

AM. And it's not an opinion based thing, it's fact, and know by most of the world.
