No I got it. Gerald krug said: It's figure the Earth nighttime and daytime mars cycle of mars facing Earth in daytime or nighttime. I got every two years mars falls behing earth 62 days so on sept 22 2011 mars was setting to night and on sept 23 2012 mars rises again as day face then add 62 days nov 25 2014 mars rises as day face two years later BooM! predictable !!!!!!! Jan 27 2016 mars rises to day face mar 29 2018 mars rises to day face and on odd years in nighttime face sept 23 2013 night face nov 26 2015 night face mar 30 2017 night face	[reply]

Yes, It's like moon phases, only on a Martian 668.5991 day year timescale. Why don't you ask JPL for a formula?	[reply]

Wouldn't it need a Logarithm formula? Like the degrees in or out of phase with the Earth prime meridian 0 degrees at any date in the future and L.A. lat. 34 long. -118 Hmmmm	[reply]

If it's two hours of time slip every six months that's 668.5991 mars year / six months 180 days = 3.714 two hour time slips (not right) because then it's only 6 hours of slip not 24 so try two hours of earth slip backwards every 111 Martian days.	[reply]
