Stardates Explained - 20110929.1626

You don't understand the startdates?

Take, for example, 20110929.1626

Let me stick some spaces in some helpful places:

2011 09 29 . 16 26

That better?

20110929 means 29th September 2011, and 1626 is in 24-hour clock format, IE 4:26PM

Stardates in the Star Trek universe work in an entirely different way. Wikipedia has a good explanation on how Stardates work.
