About these units

Day (d)

A day represents a full rotation of the Earth relative to the Sun, traditionally measured as 24 hours. Although the day is deeply tied to astronomy, its exact length varies due to Earth's gravitational interactions with the Moon, tidal braking, and geophysical processes. The modern civil day uses Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), with occasional leap seconds added to compensate for subtle variations in Earth's rotation. This ensures that civil time remains aligned with the real solar day. Days are fundamental in cultural, religious, biological, and economic cycles. Sleep patterns, work-rest rhythms, calendars, and circadian biology all operate on daily cycles, making the day not just a unit of measurement but a cornerstone of human existence.

Year (Julian) (y (Julian))

A Julian year is defined as exactly 365.25 days, reflecting the structure of the Julian calendar introduced by Julius Caesar in 45 BCE. This calendar assumed a fixed year length with a leap year every four years. Although revolutionary in its simplicity, the Julian year overestimates the actual tropical year by about 11 minutes, causing the calendar date to drift slowly relative to the seasons—an issue that accumulated to more than 10 days by the 16th century. Astronomers still use the Julian year as a standardized unit for long-term timekeeping, especially when expressing stellar motions, orbital periods, and cosmological timescales. Its simplicity and fixed length make it ideal for scientific definition even though it is obsolete as a civil calendar.
