2. Timekeeping on Mars - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timekeeping_on_Mars

   Definition of year and seasons. The length of time for Mars to complete one orbit around the Sun in respect to the stars, its sidereal year, is about 686.98 Earth solar days (≈ 1.88 Earth years), or 668.5991 sols. Because of the eccentricity of Mars' orbit, the seasons are not of equal length.

3. Darian calendar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darian_calendar

   The basic time periods from which the calendar is constructed are the Martian solar day (sometimes called a sol) and the Martian vernal equinox year.The sol is 39 minutes 35.244 seconds longer than the Terrestrial solar day, and the Martian vernal equinox year is 668.5907 sols in length (which corresponds to 686.9711 days on Earth).

4. Mars sol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_sol

   A Martian year is approximately 668.6 sols, equivalent to approximately 687 Earth days [1] or 1.88 Earth years. The sol was adopted in 1976 during the Viking Lander missions and is a measure of time mainly used by NASA when, for example, scheduling the use of a Mars rover .

5. Shoe size - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoe_size

   Standard metric foot sizes can be converted to the nearest Paris point (2 ⁄ 3 cm) sizes using approximate conversion tables; shoes are marked with both foot length in millimetres, as for pointe ballet shoe sizes, and last length in European Paris point sizes (although such converted Stichmaß sizes may come 1 ⁄ 2 to 1 size smaller than ...

6. Mars Year 1 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Year_1

   the Sol system: 668 sols per Mars Year. This system consists of uniform time units. However, Mars Year sols may be confused with rover mission times that are also expressed in sols. Unlike in the day vs. sol distinction, "Mars Year" has no unique Latin term. Start and End dates of Mars Years were determined for 1607–2141 by Piqueux et al ...

7. Barsoom - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barsoom

   The Martian year comprises 687 Martian days, each of which is 24 hours and 37 minutes long. (Burroughs presumably derived this from the figures published by Lowell, but erroneously substituted the number of 24-hour Earth days in the Martian year, rather than the number of 24.6-hour Martian days, which is only 669.) The days are hot (again known ...
