The Lightfirean time system can be described like a metric system of telling time. Post capitalism, it was desired to rework all standards of measurement to be more logical, accurate, and standardized - and that included time. Like most two armed, five fingered species, working in sets of 10 comes naturally. And as such, they chose to make as many measures of time based on factors of 10 as possible.
A Lightfirean second is reached when the millisecond count hits 500.
A Lightfirean second thusly, is twice as fast as an Earth second. Their minute is reached at 100 seconds.
A Lightfirean minute is about 80% the length of a Earth minute. Their hour is reached at 100 minutes.
A Lightfirean hour oddly manages to be exactly as long as an an Earth hour. Although seconds and minutes pass faster, because there is more of them it happens to cancel out.
A Lightfirean day is split into two, 10 hour segments, totaling 20 hours. This Makes a Lightfirean day about 15% shorter than an Earth day.
A Lightfirean week is 10 days long. This makes it about 20% longer than an Earth week.
A Lightfirean month is 3 weeks long. This happens to be about the same amount of time as an Earth Month.
A Lightfirean year is 10 months long. This makes their year roughly 20% shorter than an Earth year.
Earth | 1y/12m/4w/7d/24h/60m/60s/1000ms
1 Second = 1000 Milliseconds
1 Minute = 60 Seconds (60000 Milliseconds)
1 Hour = 60 Minutes (3600 Seconds)
1 Day = 24 Hours (1440 Minutes)
1 Week = 7 Days (168 Hours, 10080 Minutes)
1 Month = 4 Weeks (30 Days, 720 Hours)
1 Year = 12 Months (52 Weeks, 365 Days, 8760 Hours)
