    "The Sumerians watched the Sun, Moon, and the five visible planets
(Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn), primarily for omens. They
did not try to understand the motions physically. They did, however,
notice the circular track of the Sun's annual path across the sky and
knew that it took about 360 days to complete one year's circuit.
Consequently, they divided the circular path into 360 degrees to track
each day's passage of the Sun's whole journey. This probably happened
about 2400 BC.

    That's how we got a 360 degree circle. Around 1500 BC, Egyptians
divided the day into 24 hours, though the hours varied with the seasons
originally. Greek astronomers made the hours equal. About 300 to 100 BC,
the Babylonians subdivided the hour into base-60 fractions: 60 minutes
in an hour and 60 seconds in a minute. The base 60 of their number
system lives on in our time and angle divisions.

    An 100-degree circle makes sense for base 10 people like ourselves.
But the base-60 Babylonians came up with 360 degrees and we cling to
their ways-4,400 years later."


Oh, I get it...you math people "cling to their ways-4,400 years
later"....

even though there are 365days in a year.


Do you think you math guys can...improve on it by ...now? Or is that too
much to hope for?


It's going to take another 4,400 years  for yous to catch up with me....


The tools used today by the 'sci community' is a little behind the
times...
you're...limiting yourselves.

Let me take you to the other side of the universe...
