2. What is the mathematics/basics behind this? Why didn't the people who started tracking time come up with something like this - 40 sec = 1 min, 50 mins = 1 hour, 30 hours = 1 day, 365 days = 1 year?

3. I can understand how 365 days came, but why was 1 day made to be 24 hours only and not say 30 hours (which will result in less minutes in an hour). There should be some reason behind this.

The building blocks for life have been found on other planets, even other moons! To believe earth is the only planet with intelligent life in a never ending universe is ridicious! Have they visited us? Was the moon landings actually filmed in Arizone? Man can duplicate the surface of Mars here on earth in Arizona. Think of the pyramids,the Hedgestones, Burmuda Triangle, other things that mankind could not have built back then. Are we the seed of another civilazation from elsewhere in the universe of ours or from one of the many other universes out there and if there are aliens out there and they are visiting us, its not for conquest. Maybe they are just checking out the seed(s) their fellow beings deposited here centuries ago. What's your opinion on all this? Are you a believer?

There is an uncanny resemblance between my navel and the persistant muon radiations from detectable black holes. This is not enough. I would like all clergy to preach the scientific community to officially declare me a walking black hole.

Why do sunrise/sunset times vary from year to year for a particular place and date? Example - the calculated sunrise/sunset for Ray, Minnesota on November 15, 2005 and for Ray Minnesota on November 15, 2006 are slightly different. What factor accounts for this year to year change? I have seen the nasa site for calculating the sunrise/sunset times but I do not understand what the change is from year to year. The variation looking back is only between a few minutes. Thank you for your response.
