It's not just time zones and leap seconds. SI seconds on Earth are slower because of relativity, so there are time standards for space stuff (TCB, TGC) that use faster SI seconds than UTC/Unix time. T2 - T1 = [God doesn't know and the Devil isn't telling.]
Unix epoch time is wrong too, as it doesn't include leap seconds, meaning your time difference will be off by up to 15 seconds.
