About Draconic Months
The draconic (nodical) month = 27.2122 days = 2,351,135.8 s - the interval between successive Moon passages through the same orbital node. Named from the Latin 'draco' (dragon): eclipses only occur near the nodes, where the Moon can align with the Sun or Earth's shadow. The Saros cycle (18 yr 11 d) equals ~242 draconic months, enabling eclipse sequence forecasting. 1 drac.mo = 27.2122 d.
About Centuries
A century = exactly 100 Gregorian years ≈ 3.156 × 10⁹ s. Standard unit of historical periodisation (the 20th century, the 18th-century Enlightenment). IPCC projects warming and sea-level rise on century timescales. Precession of the equinoxes advances ~1.39°/century, so zodiac constellations no longer match their named seasons. Ice-core and radiocarbon records are commonly displayed at century resolution. 1 century = 100 yr.
