-
beat
-
Equal to approximately 0.91 Earth seconds.
-
mina
-
Sixty-six beats, equivalent to one Earth minute. Anderia has no equivalent term for hour.
-
rise
-
1,698 minas. Spans from sunrise to the next sunrise on Anderia, equivalent to one Anderian day at approximately twenty-eight Earth hours. Anderia has no equivalent term for month..
-
rev/revolution
-
360 rises. Signifies one full orbital revolution of Anderia around its binary suns, roughly equivalent to 1.16 Earth years at approximately 425 days.
-
Post-corruption (PC)
-
The Anderian calendar reset at rev zero following the global devastation of the Genic Murrain. All dates are referenced from this catastrophic event.
-
Cultural Notes
-
"Post-corruption" is abbreviated as “PC" in writing but is rarely spoken in full.
-
-
Written: Rev PC.696 (year) or Rise PC.86.696 (day)
Spoken: “The eighty-sixth rise of the six hundred ninety-sixth rev.”
-
-
In everyday speech, Anderians most often reference time by rise rather than rev, or by the observed position of the suns or moons, especially when speaking of recent or anticipated events. Common expressions include:
⁃ early rise (dawn)
⁃ mid-suns (noon)
⁃ late suns (dusk)
⁃ early black (evening)
⁃ last moons (last night)
⁃ last rise (yesterday)
⁃ next rise (tomorrow)
-
-
Most Anderians remain active for eighteen to twenty hours before requiring eight to ten hours of rest.

-
Genetic engineering in Con-Serv populations has optimized circadian adaptation.
-
-
Jebus Templum serves as the primary temporal anchor for all orbital sanctuaries (known as Jebus time). Orbital sanctuaries synchronized time to Jebus Templum. Circadian rhythms, leap platforms, Synsators, and archival systems auto-synchronize to Jebus time.
-
-
Unlike Earth’s four-season pattern, Anderia experiences longer, more gradual climatic shifts due to its 425-day revolution and stable axial tilt.
-
-
Con-Serv habitations maintain artificial climate control, rendering seasons largely irrelevant to orbital populations and those residing within Jebus Templum.
