1582 10 calendar
The ten days of 1582, 10, 5, 10, and 14 did not exist in history, because there was a difference of ten days between the old calendar at that time and the actual time when the earth revolved to the vernal equinox. At this time, a new calendar, the Gregorian calendar, was promulgated, and these ten days were skipped numerically to correct the date error.
At first, Britain did not follow this policy and continued to use their own calendars, which was different from the European concept of time. But after a long time, they can't stand it. Finally, in desperation, the extra days were forcibly erased by the law. As a matter of fact, this incident had little influence on the Ming Dynasty in China, which lasted for ten years in Ming Shenzong. Because our ancestors had their own dating methods, people were not greatly influenced.
The calendar of 1582 is ten days shorter than that of 10:
1582, with the development of astronomical observation technology, people in the west found that the vernal equinox had been advanced from February1year to March1year, ten days earlier than previously calculated. At that time, Pope Gregory XIII felt that it could not go on like this, so he called a large number of astronomers to form a committee. At last, everyone decided on a more suitable plan, and decided that a year was 365,425 days. Although there are still errors in this scheme, it is much better than before.
The error problem has been solved relatively, but what about ten days? Astronomers directly suggested to the Pope to erase these ten days. Although it sounds very lax, there is really no way. The Pope then forcibly ordered the cancellation of these ten days. That is, after June 4th 1582, jump directly to June 5th 10. Although it disturbs people's lives and causes their complaints, mistakes are always deleted.
