About these units

Decade (decade)

A decade spans 10 years and is widely used in demography, sociology, climatology, economics, and culture. Statistical studies often examine decade-level patterns—population change, economic cycles, consumer trends, cultural shifts, and generational studies. Climate scientists assess long-term temperature and precipitation changes over decades to filter out short-term variability. Decades also anchor cultural memory: the "60s," "80s," or "2000s" evoke distinct historical moods, fashions, and political climates. A decade, though arbitrary in length, has become a meaningful cultural and scientific periodization tool.

Hour (Sidereal) (h (sidereal))

A sidereal hour is 1/24 of a sidereal day, approximately 59 minutes and 50.17 seconds of solar time. Astronomers use sidereal hours to measure right ascension and to coordinate telescope pointing systems. Because stars return to the same apparent position after exactly one sidereal day, sidereal hours offer a stable celestial reference frame. While not used in daily life, sidereal hours are indispensable for precision observation of the universe.
