A '''Galactic Year''' is a standard measure of time in the [[Starmourn Sector]].  
 
All time devices are tuned to GST, ensuring an even measure of time across the galaxy.
 
*One Galactic Year has 15 months in it.
*Each month is 4 weeks long.
*Each week has 8 days (so there are 24 days in every month).
*Each day has 24 hours.
Therefore, there are 360 days in a year.

===The Sync===
Once every four days, you will experience '''"[[Synchronization|the Sync]]."''' The Synchronization is a galactic phenomenon that, among other things, results in recalibration of most mindsims.

*One game day  =  six real-life hours
*One game month =  six real-life days
*One game year  =  ninety real-life days
*The Sync happens every RL day at 0:00 GMT (often the best way to account for time zones for game events is to use 'sync-2' or 'sync+3' etc.)
*To work out a future date in Starmourn in-game use the command: DATE <DAYS FROM NOW><br/>
e.g. if you'd like to know the in-game date 12 IC days from now, you would type DATE 12 - which would give you the IC date in 3 RL days, as IC days are 6 hours long.
 
<pre style="color: red">Other in-game syntaxes that may prove useful:</pre>
*DATE OOC d m y (example: DATE OOC 14 Covenant 960) <br/>
This will give you the OOC date of your IC time input (does not work for dates that are already passed)
*DATE IC d/m/y/h (example: DATE IC 23 5 2019 8) <br/>
This will give you the IC date of whatever your OOC time input is (does not work for dates that are already past)
