Terran to Pern Date Conversion Chart
A Pernese Turn consists of 13 months and one Turn's End Day, which equals
out to one Terran (Earth) year--easy to convert with this handy conversion
chart. (NOTE: This doesn't work for Leap Year, when February 29th is the
day that went between.)
This file contains two charts: one for converting the years to turns and
another to convert the Terran month and day to the Pernese month and day.
How to use this chart:
Simply find the year you're looking for and follow that line to the Pernese
turn. The month and day are just as easy: find the month/day you're looking
for and follow that line to the numerical month and day combination for the
Pernese date.
Pern dates are listed YY.MM.DD (YEAR.MONTH.DAY), so for instance, October
10th, 1995 would convert to a Pernese date of 21.11.03; the 21st turn, 11th
month and the 3rd day. So, to come up with a complete Pernese date, find
the proper turn and add the proper month/day.
