GO ZHURONG!!!!! -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

No, that doesn't change things.
Long Xiao has told me that the answer is that Zhurong may spend 2 or 3 sols at one place making observations, and the differing dates in different papers are observation dates at that point. His recent paper on marine sediments also had dates which differ a bit from either of those sources I linked to. This helps, and I will try a canonical map giving what I think are actual dates at each location, but I think there are still going to be some discrepancies. More to come. -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
