Computations use UTC. ISO 8601 week numbering — week 1 always contains the year's first Thursday. Julian Day is astronomical, not Julian calendar.

How to use

  1. Pick a date or click 'Use today'.
  2. Read the day-of-year and year progress bar.
  3. Check ISO week, quarter, Julian day for whatever you need (scheduling, astronomy, historical references).

Frequently asked questions

Why does Dec 31 sometimes show next year's week 1?
ISO 8601 defines week 1 as the week containing the first Thursday of the year. So Dec 29 2025 belongs to week 1 of 2026 (its Thursday is Jan 1 2026). The 'week year' field tells you which year the week numbering anchors to.
Why ISO weekday 1 = Monday?
ISO 8601 chose Monday as the start of the week. (JavaScript's Date.getDay returns 0 for Sunday — the US convention.) This tool uses ISO numbering: Mon=1, Tue=2, …, Sun=7.
What's Julian Day?
A continuous count of days since noon UTC on Jan 1, 4713 BC. It's the standard astronomical time scale because it has no month/year boundaries to mess up calculations. Today's Julian Day is around 2.46 million.
Leap-year rule?
Divisible by 4, except divisible by 100, except divisible by 400. So 2000 is leap (÷400), 1900 isn't (÷100 but not ÷400), 2024 is (÷4 not ÷100). Comes from the Gregorian reform of 1582.
