A Martian year is equal to 1.8809 Earth years, or 1 year, 320 days, and 18.2 hours. [2] The gravitational potential difference and thus the delta-v needed to transfer between Mars and Earth is the second lowest for Earth. [186] [187] The axial tilt of Mars is 25.19° relative to its orbital plane, which is similar to the axial tilt of Earth. [2]
For example, if a TNO is incorrectly assumed to have a mass of 3.59 × 10 20 kg based on a radius of 350 km with a density of 2 g/cm 3 but is later discovered to have a radius of only 175 km with a density of 0.5 g/cm 3, its true mass would be only 1.12 × 10 19 kg.
The smallest of these, Kepler-42d, is about the size of Mars with a radius of only 0.57 times that of Earth. Not long ago, in Dec. of 2011, the Kepler team announced the discovery of Kepler-20e and Kepler-20f -- the first Earth-size planets ever found outside the solar system.
The millimetre (SI symbol: mm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −3 metres ( 1 / 1 000 m = 0.001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude , this section lists lengths between 10 −3 m and 10 −2 m (1 mm and 1 cm).
The Mars monolith is a rectangular object, possibly a boulder, discovered on the surface of Mars. [1] [2] The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter took pictures of it from orbit, roughly 180 miles (300 km) away. [1] The HiRISE camera that was used to photograph the monolith has a resolution of approximately 1 foot or 30 centimeters per pixel. [3]
