IN the number of NATURE of November 26 (p. 81), Mr. Proctor mentions one or two points in my investigation of the rotation-period of Mars, requiring correction.doi:10.1038/033153b0VAN DE SANDE BAKHUYZENH. GNatureNature——— (1885). “The Rotation‐Period of Mars.” Nature 33: 153....
Deimos, being only just outside synchronous orbit—where the orbital period would match the planet's period of rotation—rises as expected in the east but very slowly. Despite the 30 hour orbit of Deimos, it takes 2.7 days to set in the west as it slowly falls behind the rotation of ...

A) It can undershoot the requested frame rate in order to provide a theoretically better image (i.e. with a longer exposure than the inter-frame period of the selected frame rate allows) B) Itmustmeet the inter-frame deadline for the selected frame rate, even if the image may be undere...
Theoretically, this error amounts to only one sol in 10,000 Martian years; however, the actual error will depend on the changes in Mars' orbital elements, rotational period, and the rate of the precession of the pole vector over this period of time....
Mars and Earth are quite different. Compared to Earth, a year on Mars lasts almost twice as long – 686.98 Earth days. This is due to the fact that Mars is significantly farther from the Sun and its orbital period (the time it takes to orbit the Sun) is significantly greater than that...
struck Mars. The impact of those objects created craters of all sizes. The Noachian was also a time of great volcanic activity. In addition, erosion by water probably carved the many small valley networks that mark Mars's surface during the Noachian Period. Liquid water requires higher atmospher...
4). The oscillations are created by turbulent processes in the atmosphere whose characteristics can be investigated by analysing the spectral power density of temperatures, pressures and winds18,19,20. Figure 2e shows the power spectral densities of temperatures during the convective period, averaged ...
“Daylight Saving Time” or “Summer” are also included. In this case, there is a 1-hour extension in the local time. For instance, the United States uses Pacific daylight time during daylight saving time period with UTC-7. However, throughout the year the USA uses pacific standard time...
(the first half of the knob's rotation) after which the control becomes a selector for a resonance modulation source. Resonance can be modulated by LFO 2, Envelope 1 or Envelope 2, but there is no means to set the amount — it's always the full range. So, if you're tweaking ...
