The recent announcement of the possible existence of another solar system, with planetary bodies (b, c, d) orbiting a star, similar to our own solar system, has been theoretically postulated for the Upsilon Andromedae system. The U Andromedae system lies at a distance of around ~43.93 light years from our solar system. Analyses in astrophysics have purported the existence of three planetary bodies rotating around a central star. The central star has been visually observed, whereas the existence of the three planetary bodies has been deduced from theoretical math. The theoretically based information about the three planetary bodies for the U Andromedae system involves different aspects of the planetary bodies. We shall concern ourselves with only a few types of information offered by the theorists.

The initial news reports stated that the planetary body d was orbiting around four times the orbital time of Earth. Consider, then, the sidereal day-count for Earth's orbit, 365.256 days times four equals 1461.024 days. The Sothic cycle concerns a 1460/1461 year-count figure for the 365.25c and 365c respectively. The 1460/1461 count falls within the range of the orbital periodicity of planetary body d, and immediately creates an intriguing scenario. The orbital periodicity of planetary bodies, b and c, do not seem to offer any apparent key to a relationship to the ancient reckoning system. Nonetheless, as we shall observe below, the numbers of the ancient reckoning system would appear to account for the orbital timing of the Upsilon Andromedae system. ...
