As each day is divided into 24 hours, the first hour of a day is ruled by the planet three places down in the Chaldean order from the planet ruling the first hour of the preceding day; [2] i.e. a day with its first hour ruled by the Sun ("Sunday") is followed by a day with its first hour ruled by the Moon ("Monday"), followed by Mars ("Tuesday ...

T = 3.30 hours Thus, as an alternative for using a very small number like G , the strength of universal gravity can be described using some reference material, such as water: the orbital period for an orbit just above the surface of a spherical body of water is 3 hours and 18 minutes.
The ionizing radiation level at Europa's surface is equivalent to a daily dose of about 5.4 Sv (540 rem), [59] an amount that would cause severe illness or death in human beings exposed for a single Earth day (24 hours). [60] A Europan day is about 3.5 times as long as an Earth day. [61]
