Is Python's time.time() timezone specific?

Question

Apologies for asking too basic question but I couldn\'t get it cleared after reading docs. It just seems that I am missing or have misunderstood something too basic here.

time.time() returns the number of seconds since the UNIX epoch began at 0:00 UTC, Jan 1, 1970. Assuming the machines have their clocks set correctly, it returns the same value on every machine.
