...but the aviation industry for some reason chose to call it Zulu Time.

Years ago, when long distance train travel was becoming more prevalent and passenger-carrying airlines were in their infancy, the time zone was invented to make travel timetables a little less confusing.
Beginning to the east of Greenwich, near London in England, our 360 degrees of longitude were divided by 24 zones, and were labeled A-M (omitting J for some reason), all the way around to Australia.
The zones west of Greenwich were then labeled N-Y (the Pacific Time Zone is actually labeled "U" under this system). The zone that straddles the International Date Line is split in half, M on the east and Y on the west.
That only left the letter Z, which was then assigned to the zone where it all started, the 0° longitude line that passes through Greenwich. Thereby, "Zulu" time, or the time it is in Greenwich, England, became the time that was used to synchronize the timetables of trains (and later, airlines) everywhere.
