So in the course of its orbit around the sun in 365.25 days, the earth
actually rotates 366.25 times. (1465 rotations in 1461 days)

The calendar cycle which ends in a number of weeks with the 24 hours
of rotation that is February 29th,it is another day on this gorgeous
planet of ours and it ends the 4 circuits of the Earth that began on
March 1st 2008 with the first rotation.Here is one 24 hour day and one
rotation of the Earth within the greater cycle of the orbital motion
of the planet ,in this case May 29th 2008 -

You were going about your business that day as the temperature rose
as your location turned to the Sun and it got cooler as it turned into
the shadow/night.On that day people were born and died,while people
woke up to prepare for the upcoming summer,others went to sleep
getting ready for winter.Great things happened that day as with every
other day and 24 hours of rotation where one keeps in step with the
other and it is time we used all the benefits of technology such as
this time lapse footage to have a look at our own planet once more.

If you want 1465 rotations in 1461 days then turn your gaze away from
that planet and all the amazing history that occurred on its surface
from biological and geological evolution to the great battles nations
once fought,from the achievements of men who looked out from its
surface to the individual concerns for family and community.

When it happens that day turns to night within a 24 hour period,and
remaining that way through the 1461 days of the calendar cycle,you can
then look into the celestial arena from a rotating Earth as a
reasonable person and one who would not knowingly create an imbalance
between 24 hours of rotation and a day/night cycle.
