I was watching the animated series and I couldn't help but be frustrated that they use 'Stellar Cycle' for a time I'm guessing that's seconds right? I have no idea can someone shed light on me XD.
Whats years minutes...all that fun stuff lmao.

Judging by the number before the use of the word "Stellar Cycles" ...I thought it was years. (Whenever I pay attention to it enough anyway) xd I wonder how that converts. Either Earthtime is VERY slow or... rolleyes

Nothing like some good info. I just wish it remained consistent through the shows/series.

Oh cool thats great. I was lost when they mentioned Decacycle in Animated and i had a debate with my little bro wether it was A fortnight, six weeks or whatever.
In Animated i think they used these far to much and you ended up learning a new language where you did not know the time sytem. The Greek time system is complicated as well but they told you everything. In Animated you had to guess what they meant.
Keeping everything consistant would help too!

In the original Marvel comics they actually went by a completely different system.

Breem - 8.3 Earth minutes

Joor - 6.5 Earth hours

Orn - 13 Earth days

Vorn - 83 Earth years

Also, a lot of times people will throw the two (comic and cartoon) systems together... it gets kind of confusing when that happens lol

Slag= a welding/mining term for the metal that is leftover from the smelting of ore to purify metals

Basically the trash part.

Exactly. I figured people should know these aren't actually "alien" terms. XD;
