The sidereal second is a unit of time used by astronomers and is derived from the SI unit system. We have used the symbol s-sr.
1 sidereal second is 1/60 of a sidereal minute. This is derived ultimately from the sidereal day which is the time taken (in solar seconds) for the Earth to complete one rotation with respect to a distant star or constellation.
Like with normal seconds, minutes, hours and days, there are still 60 x 60 x 24 seconds in a day, but the day itself is approximately 23 h 56 min and 4.1 s in (normal) seconds.
The hour is a unit of time and is a multiple of an SI base unit with the symbol hr.
There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour. Consequently, there are 3600 seconds in an hour.
In a mean solar day, there are 24 hours.
Originally in the Middle East, the hour was defined as 1/12 of the day or night time. However, seasonal factors clearly affected all of these definitions and an average is used today to normalise and allow calculations.
