==Purpose==

The Gregorian Calendar is based primarily off of the time it takes [[Earth]] to orbit [[Sol]] one time. This became a major problem once humans left Earth; every planet makes one full orbit at different speeds. Since a Year is defined as the time it takes the planet to orbit its star, timekeeping became ~~nonuniform~~.

The Gregorian Calendar is based primarily off of the time it takes [[Earth]] to orbit [[Sol system|Sol]] one time. This became a major problem once humans left Earth; every planet makes one full orbit at different speeds. Since a Year is defined as the time it takes the planet to orbit its star, timekeeping became non-uniform.

For example, it takes Earth approximately 365.25 days to orbit the sun, while it takes [[Mars]] 686.96 days to make the same orbit. The Military Calendar is intended to standardize the definition of a year and a month throughout the UNSC controlled space in keeping with the Sol definition.
