What is a sidereal second?

A sidereal second is a unit of time equal to 1/86,400 of a sidereal day, measuring Earth's rotation relative to fixed stars; it differs slightly from a standard second.

What does quindecennial mean?

Quindecennial refers to a 15-year time interval, often used for anniversaries or long-term planning periods.

Why convert from sidereal seconds to quindecennial?

This conversion helps relate precise astronomical time measurements to larger human time intervals useful for planning, historical analysis, and scheduling.
