An Ensemble Pulsar Time Scale (EPT) is derived based on the Pulsar Timing Array. It is interesting to compare the EPT with the TT terrestrial time scale, and get many new realization on the pulsar time scale and the algorithm. Some future interesting applications of the EPT are described and discussed.
