Time taken by the Earth to orbit the Sun once with respect to the fixed stars Wikidata
The orbital period of the Earth; a measure of the time it takes for the Sun to return to the same position with respect to the stars of the celestial sphere. A sidereal year is about 20.4 minutes longer than the tropical year (which is what is kept stable by the Gregorian calendar) due to precession of the equinoxes. Wiktionary
