About Anomalistic Months
The anomalistic month = interval between successive Moon perigees = 27.5546 days = 2,380,713.2 s. Slightly longer than the sidereal month because the Moon's perigee precesses, completing one revolution in ~8.85 years. Governs 'supermoons': a full moon at perigee appears ~14% wider and 30% brighter. Tidal forces at perigee are ~30% stronger than at apogee. 1 anom.mo = 27.5546 d.
About Olympiads
An Olympiad = exactly 4 Gregorian years = 1,461 days = 126,227,808 s. In ancient Greece it was the standard historical dating system counting from the first Olympic Games at Olympia in 776 BCE; adopted by Hellenistic historians (Polybius, Timaeus). Modern Olympiads are numbered from Athens 1896. The 4-year cycle is mirrored in US presidential elections and EU Parliamentary terms. 1 Ol = 4 yr = 126,227,808 s.
