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 Hours
An hour (h) = exactly 3,600 s. The 24-hour day traces to ancient Egypt (10 daylight hours + 2 twilight + 12 night star-rise periods). Time zones are integer or half-hour UTC offsets (exceptions: India +5:30, Nepal +5:45). The kilowatt-hour = 3,600,000 J; Tc-99m half-life = 6.0067 h. Drug dosing and pharmacokinetics are expressed in hours. 1 h = 3,600 s = 60 min = 1/24 day.
