The corresponding values for Earth are currently 23 h 56 m 4.0916 s and 24 h 00 m 00.002 s, respectively, which yields a conversion factor of 1.027 491 2517 Earth days/sol: thus, Mars's solar day is only about 2.75% longer than Earth's; approximately 73 sols pass for every 75 Earth days.
If the second set of parameters is not included it will automatically calculate the days between a given date and today. It is based on the product of the count of Earth days past and the ratio of the length of Earth's solar day length (86400 seconds) with a Mars solar day (88775.24409 seconds), rounded to the nearest sol.
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).
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 .
Illustrates the range of a Martian period of time or a Martian event, the geological range of a stratigraphic unit, or other ranges on a geological timescale. Intended for use in infoboxes. For the full earth counterpart of this template, see {{Long fossil range}}. For Proterozoic ages, see {{Proterozoic time scale}}.
The first shows the entire time from the formation of the Earth to the present, but this gives little space for the most recent eon. The second timeline shows an expanded view of the most recent eon. In a similar way, the most recent era is expanded in the third timeline, the most recent period is expanded in the fourth timeline, and the most ...
You can calculate your own monthly number the same way using your Destiny Number instead of mine and catch a sneak peek of what personal numerology the year has in store. Happy counting!
Like something where you can put in Earth notation {{Earth to Mars Time|years|months|days}} and get it to spit out "2 Martian years and 78 sols" on the page. Yes, I know it's like going to the auto industry and saying "Hey, let's make a car that gets 200 miles to the gallon" - it's easy to say, and sounds simple; but it isn't - but I'm just ...
