What would happen if there was no leap year?

Answer 1

Slowly, slowly, the calendar would begin to drift out of synch with the seasons. If you were a farmer, and used to do your planting in April, eventually it would no longer work. Either the plants wouldn't have time enough to ripen befor autumn, or frost would damage them as they grew.

Answer 2

If we were not adding an extra day to 24.25% of all years, the solstices and equinoxes (the seasons) would all be about six hours later each year, and they would keep getting later and later, shifting a whole week every 28.9 years and a whole month every 125.675 years.

The actual length of a tropical earth year is about 365.24219 days. By adding an extra day to 24.25% of all years, we make the average calendar year equal to 365.2425 days, which keeps us accurate to within one day every 3200 years.

Answer 3

Since the leap year is used to synchronize the calendar year with the astronomical or seasonal year. It would be off by 4 days, and we would have non leap year

Answer 4

We would have lost 2 plus years so it would be either 2009 or 2010.
