When is Lum's Birthday in Earth time?
*
It is a different day every year, some years there may be none or more than one.
*
Why?
*
Lum's Planet does not rotate around its sun in 365 1/4 days every year, like the planet earth.
*
Therefore,
*
A year on Lum's planet is not a year in Earth Time.
*
*
1 Martian day = 24 Hours 37 Minutes Earth Time (1 Rotation)
*
1 Martian Year = 687 Earth Days
(360 Degrees around the sun)
*
If Martian New Year was January 1, 2001 Earth time the following Martian New Year would be 687 days later on November 18, 2003 Earth time.
*
You are a lot younger in Martian years but older. Your birthday in Earth time is not the same time every year since the length of the Earth and Martian years are not the same.
