Glossary of Terms

This will contain basic information on key terms in the story. It will be added on to over time, so after each chapter which submits new material to this, I will add a notation to check it.

Terms/Abbreviations

Times are based on Metric Time, but are otherwise normal, therefore;

Decisecond = 10 seconds (Rarely used)
Centisecond = 100 seconds (This would actually be 1/100th of a second, but for story purposes it is 100 seconds. In reality, the prefix would be hecto-)
Kilosecond = 1,000 seconds
Megasecond = 1,000,000 seconds (Also rarely used, about two weeks)
Day = A single rotation of Equestria, lasting 80,000 seconds, compared to Earth's 86,400

Lightsecond = Distance light travels in a second: 299,792 Kilometers, approximately
Lightminute = Distance light travels in a minute: 17,987,520 Kilometers, approximately

Equestria = A name for both the former state of Equestria, long since dissolved, and the planet it is on
Equus = The system itself, with a total of nine planets

Author's Note:

And with the making of this, I can confirm that I am working on rewriting and updating the current chapters, as well as writing the new one. I've had massive writer's block, and only now have had time to work on this when I feel comfortable doing so.
