🌅 If you’re new to Mars time: A day on Mars (called a sol) is slightly longer than on Earth—24 hours and 39 minutes. So, a Martian clock ticks a little slower, and scientists have to adjust when working with Mars rovers and missions. #SolSystem #MarsTime

Happy New Martian Year! 🎉 Today (Tosol !) , Mars completes another orbit around the Sun, marking the start of a new year on the Red Planet, 38 since Earthlings began counting. It takes 687 Earth days for Mars to make one orbit—nearly twice as long as a year on Earth! #MarsNewYear #MarsTime
