I was sorting some files today when I came accross some notes that I wrote. Witness my new calendar. I created it as an alternative to our current clock and calendar system. This allows us to reference our time as exactly 1 revolution of earth around the sun to the most accurate moment. I'm sure many of you will appreciate it. CS Calendar N = New (According to the new CS clock.) C = Current (According to the current clock.) 1 NSecond = 0.876615264 CSeconds 50 NSeconds = 1 NMinute = 43.8307632 CSeconds = 0.73051272 CMinutes 50 NMinutes = 1 NHour = 36.525636 CMinuts = 0.6087606 CHours 40 NHours = 1 NDay = 24.354024 CHours = 1.014601 CDays (1.017378769602220334222935565433 Exact Earth Rotations) 30 NDays = 1 NMonth = 30.43803 CDays (30.52136308806661002668806696299 Exact Earth Rotations) 12 NMonths = 1 Exact Earth Revolution Around Sol (to the nearest thousandth of a second) CS Calendar/Clock 1 Year = 12 Months (1 exact Earth revolution around Sol to the nearest thousandth of a second.) 1 Month = 30 Days 1 Day = 40 Hours 1 Hour = 50 Minutes 1 Minute = 50 Seconds Comparison to 8hr Work Day 12 NHours = 7.3051272 CHours 13 NHours = 7.9138878 CHours (As we can see, working 13 NHours is approximately equal to an 8 CHour work day.) -CSPlease Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

From a logistical point of view: Absolutely everything is already set up to work with the current system and it would be a complete pain in the arse to change things. If it is going to happen, let me know and I'll buy shares in clock and watch companies. Timezones would get a bit complicated, too. As the saying goes - if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Interesting though.

Alright. Won't the deviance of almost half a Cday over a Nmonth mean we'll be getting up when it's dark quite often?
Good question. Thanks for asking. The NDay is actually: 25 CMinutes and 10.386048 CSeconds longer than the exact duration of earth's rotation to the milllionth of a second. This 25min 10.386048sec addition to earth's rotation allows us the convenience of dividing the year into 30x12=360 days. 25CMin 10.386048CSec = 26.48054928418873344 NMin This does mean a slightly more than 1/2Nhour (25 NMin) deviance to the earth's exact rotation. I'm not sure how significant the effect would be regarding daylight. I do know that using our current calendar system, our measurement of years is very different. 100 Gregorian Calendar years is 15hrs 15min 50.4sec longer than the actual very exact duration of earth's revolution around the sun 100 times. This means that our history deviates very much with regard to earth's revoltution. 100 years ago is not actually 100 years ago when a year is defined as the very exact duration of earth's revolution around the sun. On the CS calendar, 100 years = 100 very exact revolutions around the sun. I would would still like to know how significant our daylight effects would be according to the new system. Perhaps somebody would like to divide the earth revolution duration to account for the 366.25635705679932032025680355588 earth axis rotations in one revolution around the sun. Note: 366 = 61 x 3 x 2. This will be the closest you can get to an exact earth rotaion in relation to a year. 6 months of 61 days each.
The only way I would think of is to do a cross between my system and the current syste. Mine is an exactly even amount of days and months. Using the current system, we can do 12 months. 6 = 30 days and the other 6 = 31 days. It would fit super even more perfectly to the daily exact earth axis rotaion than even the Gregorian Calendar does.
So let me see, you're trying to quantify everything into an equal distribution system while not taking into account that the actual time system is based on the earths rotations and Orbits around the sun, which aren't actually "Exact". It's known that the Atomic clocks which are currently used for timing actually have to have their timing made "Wrong" just to fit in with the earths orbit/rotation system, otherwise it would be completely out by being more accurate. You have to remember the Earth, it's rotation and orbit is governed by factors you can equate simply, afterall does your mathematics take into consideration Lagrange points throughout our solar system and the ballard of the planets and their orbital translations year in and year out?
