The Gregorian calendar, or Western calendar, is an astronomy-based calendar using the rotations of the Earth, Sun, and Moon. It is divided into 12 months, 52 weeks, and 365 days. Each month consists of either 30 or 31 days, except for February which consists of 28 days. In a leap year, an additional day is added on February 29.
