Stardates Explained - 20170701.1624

You don't understand the startdates?

Take, for example, 20170701.1624

Let me stick some spaces in some helpful places:

2017 07 01 . 16 24

That better?

20170701 means 1st July 2017, and 1624 is in 24-hour clock format, IE 4:24PM

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