==Behind the scenes==
The term "sidereal period" in astronomy is defined as the time that it takes an object to make one full orbit around its sun, relative to the surrounding stars—in other words, a planet's local "year."
A similar term used in ads on the HoloNet News website is "Sentient of the Sidereal," which essentially means "Person of the Year." There has never been a connection made in canon between the two items.
