The Limara Orbital Unit (LOU): A Solar-Cycle Ruler for Real-World Space Calibration

This paper defines the Limara Orbital Unit (LOU), a new motion-based ruler derived from Earth’s orbital traversal around the Sun. Unlike speculative light-year scales, the LOU is grounded in repeatable, observable motion — making it the second verified spatial unit after the GVU. It recalibrates planetary and stellar measurements using real motion cycles and becomes a permanent part of simulation-aware cosmology.
