To avoid a leap day every 4 years we would have to change days from being 24 hours.
Modern timekeeping defines a day as the sum of 24 hours—but that is not entirely correct. The Earth's rotation is not constant, so in terms of solar time, most days are a little longer or shorter than that.
The Moon is—very gradually—slowing the Earth's rotation because of friction produced by tides
If our definition of a day was truly based on one complete rotation of the Earth on its axis — a 360 degree spin — then a day would be 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds.
yeah and the effect of the moon is SLOWLY slowing down the spin of the earth so in a few MILLION years the day will be 25 or 26 hours long. what are we going to do then????? snicker snicker.😃
I’m sure when the time comes Trump or Q will have the answer
