Is that time travel or just evidence for a very long lived civilization on Mars? 42 "months" of 15/16 sols each would cover a martian year, so the article would be written in either the last or the next-to-last day of the year. (Actually, wikipedia [1] says that there was a proposal for 16 months of 42/41 sols each, but that would imply that the advanced civilization on mars is using a mixed-endian sistem of writing dates, and those are just wrong) [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timekeeping_on_Mars search for "American astronomer Robert G. Aitken" in the page. -- Elena ``of Valhalla''
