The Minervan calendar is the system used by natives of Minerva and extraplanetary colonies by which the year is divided into days.
Contents |
Year
The year is the longest unit of time in common use by Minervans; longer spans of time, such as millennia, are simply multiples of years. One year is equal to 365 M-days.
Season
Minerva is considered to have three seasons; each season has four spans.
The spans of the season of Lex:

Span
The span is a subdivision of the year, equal to 30 M-days. Originally, it followed the lunar cycle of Minerva's largest moon, Wan-Tsu, but it was adjusted over time to fit the 30-day unit it occupies today. In addition to the twelve spans of the year, there are five days without spans (and a sixth every four years), known as "passing-days."
Each of the twelve spans of the Minervan calendar has a unique name.
M-day
The M-day is the exact length of time which constitutes a Minervan day. Elsewhere within the solar system other days are used, such as the R-day employed on Riach. When not speaking of interplanetary matters, Minervans typically shorten this to just "day."
