Scientists have noticed that the Earth is speeding up; it is moving so much faster now that they want to modify the length of a day. ... The addition of “leap seconds” adjusts these atomic clocks to keep the right time in sync with the speed of the Earth.

Why does time feel speeding up?

Children perceive and lay down more memory frames or mental images per unit of time than adults, so when they remember events—that is, the passage of time—they recall more visual data. This is what causes the perception of time passing more rapidly as we age.

Is time going faster than before?

It's part of the nature of life for time to accelerate as we age. This acceleration is almost imperceptible each year, but the result is that each decade that you live through goes by faster than the one before.
