Difference between revisions of "Camarion"

Unlike popular belief at the time, the Camari were certain the planet they inhabited revolved around the Sun. So they did base their yearly calendar off of the rotation cycles. There is a catch though. They did not know that seasons were caused from this rotation so they could not disprove the common theory made by many astrologists that the planet was actually slowing down. The Camari people had believed the years were actually indefinitely becoming longer and longer and longer. They believed one day the planet would stop completely and all life would cease to exist due to that event. The rate they believed the planet to be slowing was 48% each cycle. So roughly each year was actually half a 'year' longer than the last. The original year was believed by the Camari to be 344 days long (science proves it to be 365). Their calculations meant the 2nd year after the first was 522 days long and this sharp increase of days went on for (365 day) centuries. It is thought they charted one 'year' as 189,000 days long. The term they used for 'years' was "Circump" (S•Er•Kuh•Mmp) meaning Circle Point. [[Category:Creative 1.12 Towns]]
