Calendars

There are multiple calendars used throughout the galaxy. The Yeddo calendar is considered standard across the Federation of Stellar Systems but many star systems have their own separate calendar used primarily by their locals.

Yeddo calendar

The most common system used by humans. It is based on the rotation and revolution periods of Yeddo. One year on Yeddo is 360 Earth days and one Yeddo day is approximately 26 Earth hours. Months are based on the orbital period of Yeddo's moon Ezo which takes about 30 Earth days.

There are seven days of the week which are Onesday, Twosday, Tresday, Foursday, Pentsday, Seisday and Sevensday.

Years are measured by the number of revolutions since the Blackout which is currently 2023.

Torus calendar

The overwhelming majority of Torus citizens are androids and thus, have an ability to rely on on-the-fly mathematical calculations which are impossible for most humans. The Torus calendar is simply defined as the number of seconds since the launch of Mobius OS, the operating system that tracks the uploaded consciousnesses of Torusian citizens - built around 700 years ago. Torusians refer to seconds as ticks, appending prefixes to change their factor. A kilotick for example refers to 1000 seconds.

Merin calendar

Merin's calendar is based on the current ruling family of the planet. Individual months are based on Merin's complex lunar cycle.

Frey calendar

One year in the Frey calendar is based on how long it takes for the gas giant Asgard to orbit its star. One month is based around the time it takes for Frey to make a single orbit around Asgard.

Loupa calendar

Loupa's calendar is incredibly complex. It accounts for not only the orbits of Loupa's two moons but all the other planets in the Canis system. Years are not measured by how long it takes for Loupa to orbit its star due to how short it is compared to other worlds. Instead, a "year" is measured based on very specific configurations of the planets and the phases of Loupa's moons.
