The Earth Calendar: A Human-Readable Interface for Unix Epoch Time

Hello,

I am an Italian researcher and creator. Thirty years ago, I designed a new calendar system—The Earth Calendar—with its Year Zero set to 1969, marking humanity's first steps on the Moon and the dawn of the Internet.

Its weekdays are named after fundamental elements: Moonday, Atomday, Waterday, Winday, Fireday, Earthday, and Sunday. Today, for instance, is Atomday 13, first month, Year 57, of the Atom.

One of its key features is its synchrony with the Unix Epoch.

After three decades of use, publications and refinement, I am now releasing it as an open standard for anyone to adopt, build upon, or integrate.

You can explore the calendar, its structure, and its rationale here:

I welcome thoughts, feedback, or collaboration from anyone.

Best regards,

Danilo D'Antonio (Hyper Linker)
