    365.2421 is more correct. Nasa explains: 365 +0.25 - 0.01 + 0.0025 - 0.00025 = 365.24225 https://pumas.nasa.gov/examples/how-many-days-are-year https://pumas.nasa.gov/examples/how-many-days-are-year

      >Omitting a leap year every 4000 years Wait, is this right? omitting every 100 and adding every 400 should be enough. EDIT: the 4000-year rule is just a proposal for now. So 365.2425 is correct.

        None of us will live long enough to see the 4000-year rule become a problem. I don't even expect to be around for the next 100-year rule.
