Most people know that a leap year happens every 4 years and adds an extra day to February. That’s wrong. The leap year is a little more complex than that. It’s not a leap year if it’s also a century year. That is, well, there’s a complication to that as well…
This video explains what a leap year is and why we have them. Years are based on the Earth travelling around the Sun. However, the calculations don’t evenly fit into exact days – despite our best efforts. The leap year is part of the adjustment.
It’s all connected to the sun destroying the planet. Kinda.
