!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is defined in [RFC 3339] as a period of [time] of 24 [hours]
[{$pagename}] is an interval of [Time] equal to 24 [hours] [1]
Besides the day of 24 [hours] (86,400 [seconds]), the word day is used for several different spans of time based on the rotation of the Earth around its axis. An important one is the solar day, defined as the [time] it takes for the Sun to return to its culmination point (its highest point in the sky). Because the Earth orbits the Sun elliptically as the Earth spins on an inclined axis, this period can be up to 7.9 [seconds] more than (or less than) 24 hours.
