Hectaëteris

A hectaëteris is the Greek name for the period over 100 tropical years (also known as a tropical century or hectade or centade) where the Moon phase occurs over 5 days later.

It corresponds to 1,237 synodic months, 1,337.0100713736433 sidereal months, 1,342.387255070837 draconic months, 1,325.7098123607332 anomalistic months, and 36,529.337310185234 days.

Ben: The first full moon of 2022 was January 17.
Gregory: What's so special about that?
Ben: Betty White would've turned 100.
Gregory: She was special.
Ben: This means a full moon occurred around 5 days before she was born.
Gregory: I see.
Ben: Because January's full moon in 2022 was a hectaëteris after January's full moon in 1922, which was 37 years before the year Kirstie Alley was born.
Gregory: You mean 1959.
Ben: Yeah, on January 12.
Gregory: I see.
Ben: May she rest in peace as well.
Gregory: Sad.
