The Herschelgreg: The Herschel Gregorian Calendar Year Unit of Time

Gregorian Calendar Year: 1 Gregg = 146,097 days per 400 years
Herschel Gregorian Calendar Year: 1 Herschelgreg = 1,460,969 days per 4,000 years
1 Herchelgreg = 9.999993155232483 Gregorian Years!

Length in Days

Gregorian Calendar Year: 365.2425 days
Herschel Gregorian Calendar Year (making every multiple of 4,000 a common year): 365.24225 days

Increasing The Prescision

While the Gregorian calendar is accurate to within one day every 3,300 years, Herschel's modification would have increased this precision.

Calculations for the Modified Gregorian calendar errors show that the Modified Gregorian calendar has an error of one day in 12,500 years.

Worksheet

146097 days = 400 years
Find LCM between 3300 and 4000
3300 x 40 = 132000
400 x 330 = 132000

48,212,010 days in 132,000 years Gregorian as it is. Average: 365.2425

48,211,970 days in 132,000 years Modified Gregorian with one day in January removed every 3,300 years to become commmon years. Average: 365.242196969697

365.242219 x 132,000 = 48,211,969.08

Mean tropical year: (Laskar's expression) on 2000: 365.2421896698
