About these units
Minute (Sidereal) (min (sidereal))
A sidereal minute is 1/60 of a sidereal hour, lasting about 59.836 seconds in solar time. This unit refines astronomical timekeeping, enabling precise tracking of star transits, celestial navigation, and long-exposure astrophotography. Sidereal minutes illustrate how deeply astronomical timing differs from civil timekeeping, demonstrating the challenges of aligning human calendars with cosmic cycles.
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.
