Every living creature has a biological clock. Living in sync with your biological clock has a very positive impact on your daily rhythm, your rest and your health and is therefore very important for your well-being.

Our biological clock is influenced by two factors:

The actual duration of a full day is not constant. For example, the difference between the shortest and the longest day of the year can be more than 50 seconds!

The "old" Gregorian Calendar, which is the calendar used by most people today, does not take this into account and simply uses the average duration of a day. Because of this, the Gregorian Calendar is sometimes more than 16 minutes out of sync with reality. How can this be?

To see this, let's assume that we're in a part of the year when the actual day is 30 seconds shorter than the average:

The Gregorian Calendar is now 30 seconds out of sync with reality and therefore, your biological clock. How about the next day?

The Gregorian day is not only 30 seconds too long, it also starts 30 seconds too late, because of the previous day. So now, it's 60 seconds out of sync!

Later in the year, things will even out again, but during certain parts of the year, the difference between the Gregorian Calendar and your biological clock can be as much as 16 minutes!

It's not just the daily cycle that doesn't match. The seasonal cycle is also affected. In most parts of the world, summer days have more daylight than winter days. Some countries address this by enforcing Summer Time and Winter Time. These adjustments are not natural and add another hour to the mismatch.

Summing it up:

Every creature in the wild lives according to its biological clock, except us! By using the Lukashian Calendar, you can be in sync again.

For astronauts living in space habitats, such as space stations and planetary settlements, being in sync with your biological clock is even more important. The Lukashian Calendar is the perfect calendar for space habitats, providing a mechanism to make days and years exactly as long as needed to give astronauts the ideal conditions for the specific location that they inhabit.

The Lukashian Calendar uses beeps to tell the time of day. A beep is simply a number that runs from 0 to 9999, dividing each day into 10000 parts. This paints a much better picture of how much of our time we actually spend on things, such as work or leisure, because beeps represent a proportion. For example: 2500 beeps is 25% of your day.

Being aware of how much of your time you spend on your activities, allows you to better manage your routine and make sure that you spend your time on things that are most important to you. If you spend 30 minutes travelling to work, the Gregorian Calendar won't tell you what part of your day you've spent. In the Lukashian Calendar, that's approximately 200 beeps, or 2% of you day!
