What are tropical and Julian

The term 'tropical year' refers to the time it takes for the Earth to complete one orbit around the Sun, relative to the equinoxes. It's the cycle that determines the length of our calendar year and is approximately 365.24219 days. This is crucial for maintaining the alignment of our seasons with the calendar over time, as it accounts for the slight variations in Earth's orbital speed.

A 'Julian year' is a time unit defined as exactly 365.25 days, each day composed of 86,400 seconds. This duration is based on the Julian calendar introduced by Julius Caesar in 45 BC and is used primarily in the field of astronomy. While not aligning perfectly with the solar year or the modern Gregorian calendar, the Julian year remains a standard for astronomical calculations and date comparisons.

History of tropical and Julian
