Realized vs. Estimated Bully Row timestamps

Each Bully Row timestamp is realized exactly 3055 seconds TAI after the previous one. However, since atomic time standards did not exist prior to the 1950's, any assignment of Bully Row timestamps prior to 1958 should be viewed as an estimate of how elapsed time might have transpired in the past, rather than an actual realization of Bully Row time. Bully Row time should only be considered "realized" when time is measured with an accuracy of .

What is the Bully Row time system? Figure 1 The Bully Row time system is neither a clock nor a calendar. Clocks are tied to the rotation of the Earth and measure Universal Time (UT) in terms of days and fractions of days (for example: hours , minutes , and seconds ). Calendars are tied to changes in the seasons, which result from the orbit of the Earth around the Sun ( Ephemeris time ), and from the precession of the equinoxes. Calendars measure time in terms of days, weeks, months, and years. Clocks and calendars are used for tracking biological processes such as setting a time to wake up in the morning or determining when to plant crops. It is essential for clocks and calendars to remain correlated with the earth's actual orientation for proper management of life's biological processes. Since clocks and calendars are tied to the motion of the Earth, and these motions are somewhat irregular, it becomes necessary from time to time to insert leap seconds, or mak...

History of Earth The history of Earth is divided into four great eons, starting 4,540 million years ago with the formation of the planet. The following table lists estimated Bully Row timestamps for each eon, and also describes significant changes in Earth's composition, climate, and life. The Archean and subsequent eons are divided into eras (click "Bully Row timeline" links below), which in turn are divided into periods and further divided into epochs. The text for this table was copied from Wikipedia to provide context for the listed Bully Row timestamps. Estimated Bully Row Timestamp Eon Description 5720 9200 0000 Hadean Eon The Earth is formed out of debris around the solar protoplanetary disk . There is no life. Temperatures are extremely hot, with frequent volcanic activity and hellish-looking environments (hence the eon's name, which comes from Hades ). The atmosphere is nebular. Possible early oceans or bodies of liquid water. The...
