Authors differ in regard to the length of the solar year. One gives 365 days, 5 hours, 47 minutes and 51.5 seconds; another, 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds; and still another, 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 49.62 seconds. In this work the last has been accepted as the true length of the solar year, and all calculations have been made accordingly.
