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 Weeks
A week (wk) = exactly 7 days = 604,800 s. The 7-day week derives from Babylonian astronomy assigning one of the seven classical celestial bodies to each day - preserved in English (Sun-day, Mon-day, Satur-day) and Romance language day names. It spread globally via Jewish, Christian, and Islamic calendars. ISO 8601 numbers weeks 1-52(53) with Monday as day 1. 365-day years contain 52 weeks + 1 day. 1 wk = 7 d = 604,800 s.
