  • How Long Is a Year.Pdf
    How Long Is A Year? Dr. Bryan Mendez Space Sciences Laboratory UC Berkeley Keeping Time The basic unit of time is a Day. Different starting points: • Sunrise, • Noon, • Sunset, • Midnight tied to the Sun’s motion. Universal Time uses midnight as the starting point of a day. Length: sunrise to sunrise, sunset to sunset? Day Noon to noon – The seasonal motion of the Sun changes its rise and set times, so sunrise to sunrise would be a variable measure. Noon to noon is far more constant. Noon: time of the Sun’s transit of the meridian Stellarium View and measure a day Day Aday is caused by Earth’s motion: spinning on an axis and orbiting around the Sun. Earth’s spin is very regular (daily variations on the order of a few milliseconds, due to internal rearrangement of Earth’s mass and external gravitational forces primarily from the Moon and Sun). Synodic Day Noon to noon = synodic or solar day (point 1 to 3). This is not the time for one complete spin of Earth (1 to 2). Because Earth also orbits at the same time as it is spinning, it takes a little extra time for the Sun to come back to noon after one complete spin. Because the orbit is elliptical, when Earth is closest to the Sun it is moving faster, and it takes longer to bring the Sun back around to noon. When Earth is farther it moves slower and it takes less time to rotate the Sun back to noon. Mean Solar Day is an average of the amount time it takes to go from noon to noon throughout an orbit = 24 Hours Real solar day varies by up to 30 seconds depending on the time of year.

  • The Calculation of Doomsday Based on Anno Domini
    SCIENTIFIC CULTURE, Vol. 1, No. 2, (2015), pp. 22-32 Copyright © 2015 SC Open Access. Printed in Greece. All Rights Reserved. The calculation of doomsday based on Anno Domini Sepp Rothwangl Waldwirtschaft Hubertushof Scheibsgraben 49, A-8661 Wartberg, Astria (CALENdeRsign.com;[email protected]) Received: 10/01/2015 Accepted: 15/02/2015 ABSTRACT Anno Domini, or the year Christ’s birth, was an invention made some 1400 years ago by Dionysius Exiguus, who adjusted a new Easter Computus in order to avert end time fever with the pretext to solve a dispute upon the correct date of Easter. Right at the beginning of Christianity, early Christians expected in the near future the return of Christ, which was associated with the end of the world, together with the Seventh Day of the Lord. Such a scenario ocurred already in the cosmic year Anno Mundi (AM) 6,000 based upon a teleological concept by interpreting the Bible. AM produced a calendrical end time with its year 6000 due to equating the Six Days of Genesis with the verse of the Bible saying one Day of the Lord was the same as 1000 years of mankind. To combat the end of the world fever caused by this time concept at the beginning of the 6th century Dionysius Exiguus created a new temporal hinge point for counting the years: Anno Domini. Obviously this chronology is not in harmony with ancient historical works, as even former Pope Benedict XVI recognized, but is an end time prophecy by interpreting the Gospel, the Apocalypse, the scientific cosmology of antiquity, and astronomical values.

  • Understanding Book of Mormon Chronology
    Understanding Book of Mormon Chronology Alan C. Miner (Updated May, 2020) Contents 1. The Problems p. 1-10 2. The Theories p. 11-38 3. The Sources p. 39-68 1. The Problems Contrary to what might be assumed by reading a “historical” book with the year seemingly footnoted on almost every page, the process of affixing dates to the events in the Book of Mormon, correlating those dates with known historical calendars, and establishing a compatible chronological record is an extremely complex process that hasn’t yet led to a consensus solution. Rather, this complexity has resulted in various different theoretical interpretations. My goal with this paper is not to decide who is right and who is wrong; my goal is to simply lay out the basic reasoning as I see it that supports these theories, list the sources that support the theory, provide a corresponding chronological list of events, and then ask some basic questions that have come into my mind as I have tried to assimilate the reasoning. I don’t claim to be an astronomer, or an expert on calendars, or an expert in biblical history, or a shrewd analyst that can detect every flaw in these theories. I am just seeking to go forward in my studies of the Book of Mormon and make sense of some of the complexities within the text. In other words, I am just seeking some clarification of the Book of Mormon story, not only for myself, but for those who might read this paper. To me it stands to reason that the more I (or we) establish historical correlation with some of the major events and some of the major prophecies in the Book of Mormon, the more significant the gospel message becomes.

  • BIBLE CHRONOLOGY STATED As B.C. and A.M. the Arrangement of Chronology in Our Common Version English Bibles Was Made by Bishop Usher
    BIBLE CHRONOLOGY STATED as B.C. and A.M. THE arrangement of Chronology in our Common Version English Bibles was made by Bishop Usher. It begins with the era known as Anno Domini (the year of our Lord--although Usher believed, with many scholars, that our Lord was born 4 years earlier than that era,—and we claim 1-¼ years earlier.) Usher reckons backward from A.D., calling the years B.C. The table below lists the Biblical years according to the common era (B.C.). Since some might prefer to see the counting beginning from Adam’s creation as a zero point, a second column is included known as A.M. (Anno Mundi) or the year of the world. Each Biblical period is advanced from the corresponding B.C. or A.M. points. Dates are noted in customary whole years beginning in January. However, a precise accounting may be reckoned 3 months earlier according to the Hebrew secular calendar, making Adam’s creation in the Autumn of 4129 and 6000 ending in the Autumn of 1872. Page two picks up the fixed point in chronology marked as the covenant with Abraham, and proceeding with the Biblical bridge supplied in Exodus and Galatians extending to the Exodus. Otherwise, we would not know the years between the death of Jacob and the Exodus from Egypt. God created Adam BC 4128 AM 0 Gen.2:7; 5:1 had a son at 130 Gen. 5:3 Seth born BC 3998 AM 130 had a son at 105 Gen. 5:6 Enos born BC 3893 AM 235 had a son at 90 Gen.

  • In Interdisciplinary Studies of Climate and History
    PERSPECTIVE Theimportanceof“year zero” in interdisciplinary studies of climate and history PERSPECTIVE Ulf Büntgena,b,c,d,1,2 and Clive Oppenheimera,e,1,2 Edited by Jean Jouzel, Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de L’Environ, Orme des Merisiers, France, and approved October 21, 2020 (received for review August 28, 2020) The mathematical aberration of the Gregorian chronology’s missing “year zero” retains enduring potential to sow confusion in studies of paleoclimatology and environmental ancient history. The possibility of dating error is especially high when pre-Common Era proxy evidence from tree rings, ice cores, radiocar- bon dates, and documentary sources is integrated. This calls for renewed vigilance, with systematic ref- erence to astronomical time (including year zero) or, at the very least, clarification of the dating scheme(s) employed in individual studies. paleoclimate | year zero | climate reconstructions | dating precision | geoscience The harmonization of astronomical and civil calendars have still not collectively agreed on a calendrical in the depths of human history likely emerged from convention, nor, more generally, is there standardi- the significance of the seasonal cycle for hunting and zation of epochs within and between communities and gathering, agriculture, and navigation.

  • What Year Is It? A.D., A.L., A.M., Or A.O
    What Year is it? A.D., A.L., A.M., or A.O. There is confusion from time to time about the year designation A.L. on a Masonic document. I located the following references in A Comprehensive Dictionary of Freemasonry by Ernest Beha, New York, New York: Citadel Press, 1963. Anno Domini (A.D.) This is the Latin for “In the Year of Our Lord”. It is also called the Vulgar Era, referring to its common or general use, a term which perhaps will fall into disuse eventually. The Masonic year, or “The Year of Light” is 4,000 years ahead of Anno Domini. (See Anno Lucis.) Anno Lucis (A.L.) This is Latin for “In the Year of Light”. The term is frequently used in Masonic procedure, and expresses a year that is 4,000 beyond Anno Domini (“The year of Our Lord”). There is a reason for this, of course. The date of the creation of the world is generally assumed to be 4,000 years before the birth of Our Lord, and the creation of the world saw the beginning of Light. (“Let there be Light. And there was Light.”) Dr. James Anderson, in his 1723 “Constitutions”, refers to the 4,000 year-advanced “Anno Lucis” as “The Year of Masonry” and the idea was adopted. That is why a Mason's Grand Lodge registration certificate has two dates recorded thereon, the Year of Light (or the Year of Masonry) and the accepted everyday calendar year (or the “Year of Our Lord”). So, therefore, if a person were made a Mason in 1955, this year (and the precise date) would appear on it, as well as the Anno Lucis date, which would be 5955 and in Iowa the date on his 50 year certificate if he lost no time would be 6005.
