For much of Dr Pepperâs history, the drink was a regional delicacy confined to the South and Southwest. Coca-Cola and Pepsi had used their head starts on Dr Pepper to build nationwide networks of independent bottlers who had exclusive franchise contracts to turn their respective syrups into colas.
The Moon Cycle. The term moon cycle (or lunar cycle) refers to the moon's continuous orbit around the earth. As the moon orbits the earth, its appearance (the phase) changes and thus gives us an indication of the moon's progress in the cycle (the age).
Quick Answer. A lunar year is approximately 354 days long. It consists of 12 cycles of a complete lunar phase, or a synodic month, which is about 29 days. The duration of a lunar month changes from cycle to cycle due to the oblong orbit of the moon around the Earth and the Earth around the sun. They change by a matter of hours rather than days, subsequently altering the length of every lunar year. Several cultures and religions use a lunar calendar.
