Conversion number between year (mean tropical) [a, y, or yr] and year (sidereal) [a, y, or yr] is 0.99996119820642. This means, that year (mean tropical) is smaller unit than year (sidereal).
Switch to reverse conversion:
from year (sidereal) to year (mean tropical) conversion
| [a, y, or yr] |
Result in year (sidereal)
?If conversion between year (mean tropical) to second and second to year (sidereal) is exactly definied, high precision conversion from year (mean tropical) to year (sidereal) is enabled.
Since definition contain rounded number(s) too, there is no sense for high precision calculation, but if you want, you can enable it. Keep in mind, that converted number will be inaccurate due this rounding error!
