Note

The period of time during which the Earth completes one rotation with respect to the Sun is called a day. It is 86400 seconds.
A tropical year is the time that the Sun takes to return to the same position in the cycle of seasons, as seen from Earth, it is 365.24149135 days.
As this value is nearly 365.2425 days it was decided that some civil years have 366 days every 4 years except every 100 years (1900 was not a bissextile year) except every 400 year (2000 was a leap year).
Several definitions exist for a lunar month depending on the reference used.
On dates, the reference date is computed according to your local timezone. But duration computations are done regardless daylight saving time .
