Aerospace

A period of one revolution of the earth around the sun.The period of one revolution with respect to the vernal equinox, averaging 365 days 5 hours 48 minutes 45.68 seconds in 1955, is called a tropical, astronomical, equinoctial, natural, or solar year. The period with respect to the stars, averaging 365 days 6 hours 9 minutes 9.55 seconds in 1955, is called a sidereal year. The period of revolution from perihelion to perihelion, averaging 365 days 6 hours 13 minutes 53.16 seconds in 1955, is an anomalistic year. The period between successive returns of the sun to a sidereal hour angle of 80 degrees is called a fictitious or Besselian year. A civil year is the calendar year of 365 days in common years, or 366 days in leap years. A light year is a unit of length equal to the distance light travels in one year, 9.460 X 10E12 kilometers. The term year is occasionally applied to other intervals such as an eclipse year, the interval between two successive conjunctions of the sun with the same node of the moon's orbit, a period averaging 346 days 14 hours 52 minutes 52.23 seconds in 1955, or a great or Platonic year, the period of one complete cycle of the equinoxes around the ecliptic, about 25,800 years.

Bible

Year Heb. shanah, meaning "repetition" or "revolution" (Gen. 1:14; 5:3). Among the ancient Egyptians the year consisted of twelve months of thirty days each, with five days added to make it a complete revolution of the earth round the sun. The Jews reckoned the year in two ways, (1) according to a sacred calendar, in which the year began about the time of the vernal equinox, with the month Abib; and (2) according to a civil calendar, in which the year began about the time of the autumnal equinox, with the month Nisan. The month Tisri is now the beginning of the Jewish year. Source: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary.

Literature

Year Annus magnus. The Chaldaic astronomers observed that the fixed stars shift their places at about the rate of a degree in seventy-two years, according to which calculation they will perform one revolution in 25,920 years, at the end of which time they will return to their "as you were." This revolution of the fixed stars is the annus magnus. The Egyptians made it 30,000 years, and the Arabians 49,000. (See Abulhasan's Meadows of Gold.)
For a year and a day. In law many acts are determined by this period of time- e.g. if a person wounded does not die within a year and a day, the offender is not guilty of murder; if an owner does not claim an estray within the same length of time, it belongs to the lord of the manor; a year and a day is given to prosecute appeals, etc. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.

Year

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

simple:year A year is the term for any period of time that is derived from the period of the orbit of the Earth (or indeed any planet) around its Sun. In astronomy, several types of year are defined:

365.256363051 days (at the epoch J2000 = 1 Jan. 2000 12h TT).

The actual duration varies from year to year because the motion of the Earth is influenced by the gravity of the Moon and other planets.

365.24218967 days (365d 5h 48m 45s) (at the epoch J2000).

the perihelion, where the Earth is closest to the Sun (around 2 January), and
  • the aphelion, where the Earth is furthest from the Sun (around 2 July).
    • Because of gravitational disturbances by the other planets, the shape and orientation of the orbit are not fixed, and the apsides slowly move with respect to a fixed frame of reference. Therefore the anomalistic year is slightly longer than the sidereal year: on average:

    365.259635864 days (at the epoch J2000).

    346.620075883 days (at the epoch J2000).

    411.78443029 days (at the epoch J2000).

    Calendars usually try to match some tropical year, because the seasons and their cardinal points are determined by this sort of year. For practical reasons, a calendar year consists of an integer number of days. In the calendar currently in use in western societies, the Gregorian calendar, most years have 365 days. In order to keep synchronized with the March equinox tropical year (365.2424 days), almost every 4th year gets 366 days: this is called a leap year. The most important current exception is the Islamic calendar, a lunar calendar without leap years, in which holidays move through the seasons.

    Julian year: 365.25 days, the average length of the year in the Julian calendar.

    The Gaussian year lasts 365.2568983 days, and is derived from the Gaussian gravitational constant that is expressed in units of the solar system.

    Besselian year: this is a tropical year that starts when the mean Sun reaches the ecliptic longitude of 280°. This is always on or close to the 1st day of January. It is named after the 19th-century astronomer and mathematician Friedrich Bessel. An approximate formula to compute the current time in Besselian years from the Julian day is:

    B = 2000 + (JD - 2451544.53)/365.242189

    The distinction from one planet to another is made through use of a preceding adjective, such as: "the Martian year."

    Lexicography

    Devil's Dictionary

    		FAIRY, n. A creature, variously fashioned and endowed, that formerly inhabited the meadows and forests. It was nocturnal in its habits, and somewhat addicted to dancing and the theft of children. The fairies are now believed by naturalist to be extinct, though a clergyman of the Church of England saw three near Colchester as lately as 1855, while passing through a park after dining with the lord of the manor. The sight greatly staggered him, and he was so affected that his account of it was incoherent. In the year 1807 a troop of fairies visited a wood near Aix and carried off the daughter of a peasant, who had been seen to enter it with a bundle of clothing. The son of a wealthy bourgeois disappeared about the same time, but afterward returned. He had seen the abduction been in pursuit of the fairies. Justinian Gaux, a writer of the fourteenth century, avers that so great is the fairies' power of transformation that he saw one change itself into two opposing armies and fight a battle with great slaughter, and that the next day, after it had resumed its original shape and gone away, there were seven hundred bodies of the slain which the villagers had to bury. He does not say if any of the wounded recovered. In the time of Henry III, of England, a law was made which prescribed the death penalty for "Kyllynge, wowndynge, or mamynge" a fairy, and it was universally respected.
