Infact - there are 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds in 1 year - the precise time it normally takes the earth to travel round the sun.

Which is why there is a leap every 4 years, but not on years that are equally divisable by 100, unless the year is also divisable by 400 - in this instance it is still a leap year.

However - I sometimes wonder that there must be fluctuations in this due to various factors like gravitanional fields of other planets, cosmic dust being gathered by the earth?

Dunno.

Anyone break it down into 10ths of a second?

Hope this helps.



Shit Im off to do another gallery
