2022年12月26日 · If year 1 AD/CE is actually the year 0 AD/CE, does that mean this is 2021 AD and not 2022 AD? I did a little reading on Wikipedia (it has a page on Year Zero) and it seems that astronomers have decided to treat year 1 BC/BCE as year 0 and if that's the case, this year, which is about to end in 5 days, is the year 2022. Astronomers don't use the ...

There are some calendars which do have a year zero. The calendar used by astronomers corresponds to the Gregorian and Julian calendars, but does not use AD or BC. Instead it has a year zero, coinciding with the Julian 1 BC, and before that years are negative. This continuity makes sense when you regularly work on time scales of billions of years.

2024年4月14日 · The Julian calendar does not include the year 0. Thus the year 1 BCE is followed by the year 1 CE (See: BCE/CE Dating Conventions ). This is awkward for arithmetic calculations. Years in this catalog are numbered astronomically and include the year 0. Historians should note there is a difference of one year between astronomical dates and BCE dates.

2018年7月20日 · So year 2010 is the last year of the first decade of the twenty-first century. Roman numerals have historically been used to represent year numbers. Roman numerals do not have a representation for zero so Roman numerals are useful for representing natural numbers but less useful for representing integers.

Some stating the 9th century and recently a new carbon dating of a piece of parchment dates a symbol, that evolved into the zero, back the 3rd or 4th centuries. If the zero didn't exist before these periods, then are we not off on our count by 10% (1/10) of actual days that existed previously and thus our modern year, inaccurate as well.

2018年1月20日 · The number representing a year or a century gets smaller as we approach AD / CE. I was wondering what happens if we have an exact BC / BCE date. Do months and days also get smaller as we approach AD / CE? So, for example, between 500/01/25 BC and 500/12/25 BC, their order from old to new is 500/12/25 BC - 500/01/25 BC or the opposite?

2019年10月30日 · Since it seems that year enumeration goes from -1 to +1, there's roughly a $\pi \times 10^7$ second discontinuity in your example. $\endgroup$ – uhoh Commented Oct 31, 2019 at 5:21

As described in this article here by Dr Mario Livio: The Talmud (an 1500-2000 year-old Jewish book of laws and traditions) describes how a Rabbi anticipated hs ship getting lost, because “There is a star that appears every 70 years and induces navigation errors.

2000年1月1日 · The Julian calendar had a leap year every four years, making a Julian year 365.25 days long on average. The Gregorian calendar has 97 leap years every 400 years, making a Gregorian year 365.2425 days long on average. The other change was a one-time shortening of some year to bring the calendar back in line with the seasons in the third century AD.
