This small difference in the Sun's position against the stars causes any particular spot on the Earth's surface to catch up with ( and stand directly north or south of ) the Sun about 4 minutes later each day than it would if the Earth did not orbit ; our day is 24 hours long rather than the approximately 23 hour 56 minute sidereal day.

For accurate astronomical work on land, it was usual to observe sidereal time rather than solar time to measure mean solar time, because the observations of ' fixed ' stars could be measured and reduced more accurately than observations of the Sun ( in spite of the need to make various small compensations, for refraction, aberration, precession, nutation and proper motion ).
Astronomers found that it was more accurate to establish time by observing stars as they crossed a meridian rather than by observing the position of the Sun in the sky.
