The Stardate Calculator allows you to convert Earth dates and times into Stardates, a fictional time system used in the Star Trek universe. This can be useful for fans, writers, and anyone interested in integrating Stardates into their projects.
Stardate Calculation Formula
The formula for converting an Earth date and time to a Stardate is based on the Star Trek conventions. The simplified version used here is:
Stardate = (Earth Date Time in seconds / 86400) + 10000
Variables:

- Earth Date Time in seconds is the time converted from the Earth date and time.
- 86400 is the number of seconds in a day.
- 10000 is an arbitrary base added to align with the fictional timeline.
To calculate the Stardate, convert the Earth date and time into seconds, divide by the
