A month is a unit of time we use in our calendars, lasting from 28 to 31 days.
While it's a simple concept we use every day, the story of the month is a fascinating blend of astronomy and ancient history, tied directly to the Moon's cycle.
The concept of a month is fundamentally tied to the Moon. A "lunar month" (or synodic month) is the time it takes for the Moon to cycle through all its phases, from one new Moon to the next, which is approximately 29.5 days.
Early civilizations built their calendars around this observable cycle. However, because 12 lunar months (~354 days) don't perfectly align with a full solar year (~365.25 days), calendar months were adjusted to their current, slightly longer, and more varied lengths to keep the seasons in sync with the year.
Many of our modern month names are inherited from the ancient Roman calendar, which initially had only ten months and started in March. This is why the names for September, October, November, and December come from the Latin words for seven, eight, nine, and ten, respectively.
Later, January (named for Janus, the god of beginnings) and February were added. Months like March were named for the god Mars, while July and August were renamed to honor the influential Roman leaders Julius Caesar and Augustus Caesar.
The irregular pattern of 28, 30, and 31 days in a month is the result of historical calendar reforms. When the Romans moved from a lunar-based to a solar-based calendar, they needed to spread the days of the year across 12 months.
The system we use today, the Gregorian calendar, is a refinement of the Julian calendar established by Julius Caesar. The specific lengths were a practical solution to make 365 days (and later, 365.25 with a leap day) fit into 12 divisions.
February was left with the fewest days, partly because it was the last month added to the original Roman calendar.
A millisecond is a tiny unit of time equal to one-thousandth of a second. To put that in perspective, a single blink of an eye takes about 300 to 400 milliseconds. Often abbreviated as ms, it's a standard unit of measurement essential for understanding speed in technology, biology, and our everyday digital lives.
Our brains are incredibly fast, processing an entire image in just 13 milliseconds.
This incredible speed allows for the smooth motion of still images in movies. For example, most movies are shot at 24 frames per second, with each frame appearing for about 42 milliseconds. Millisecond processing is essential to our interaction with the world around us.
Every millisecond matters online. Tiny delays we barely notice can still hurt performance, annoy users, and cost real money. A few examples:
The human nervous system is a remarkable network that sends messages in just milliseconds. A nerve impulse, also known as an action potential, lasts for only 1 to 2 milliseconds.
In that tiny fraction of time, an electrical signal travels down a neuron, allowing your brain to send commands to the rest of your body almost instantly. This is what will enable us to think, move, and feel in real-time.
