Astronomical events
All these dates are in a uniform time scale such as Terrestrial Time. When converted to our ordinary solar time or Universal Time, which is decidedly non-uniform, via ΔT, the dates would be a couple of days earlier. Furthermore, they are only astronomical dates, so they are given in the astronomical format of Year Month Day, which allows them to be ordered.
- 9106 November 5: Venus occults Regulus.
- 9361 August 4: Simultaneous annular solar eclipse and transit of Mercury.[1]
- 9622 February 4: Simultaneous annular solar eclipse and transit of Mercury.[1]
- 9682 November 16: Mercury occults Regulus.
- 9847 November 21: Mars occults Regulus.
- 9966 August 11: Simultaneous total solar eclipse and transit of Mercury.[1]
Year 10,000 problem
Software that encodes the CE calendar year of a date as a four-character binary-coded decimal will no longer be able to encode the contemporaneous date.
