With , with the main five competeing non-heretical competing factional interpretations ranging in date by over around a thousand yearsand some lesser, more heretical tendencies going further.

*An exact method for breaking the year fraction into 1000 equal parts is not given by in-universe sources, however there are some methods avaliable. All give a year fraction as lasting approximately 8.5 Terran hours.
*DakkaDakka forum user Makr stated in 2009 that the year fraction could be worked out as follows{{Fn|3}} :
** Figure out what day of the year an event is. (For Example 200)
** Multiple that by 24. (For Example 200 x 24 = 4800)
** Add the number of hours an event is to that number. (For Example if the event was at 4pm. 4800 + 16 = 4816)
** Multiple this by the constant 0.11407955263862231501532129004257 (Giving us 549.407 from our example above)
** Round this to the closest full number (549). Thus giving you the year fraction.{{Fn|3}}
*Additional to this Lexicanum user [[User:307th Artemian]] noted on 17 February 2015 that Makr's calculation added 24 hours to the number, and thus that you should use the date from 1 day before, then add the hour in the current day.
