   Poll is over. 95% of you should not work for NASA!

   The earth makes a little more than 366 rotations during a 365 day long year.

   The explanation is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth%27s_rotation#Stellar_and_sidereal_day

   A full rotation is called a "stellar day", meaning the time for a fixed star to be in the same position again. Not the same for the sun, as we make our way around it.
