Topics like this are a bad idea

Lots of people will argue about when the actual 'arrival' is. Lots of people will get into heated debates about what does and doesn't constitute the day on which we actually 'arrive' etc etc.

Moreover, it doesn't actually achieve anything. We simply end up with a few dozen people who all guessed wrong.

The near-rim-far-rim 'beacon' thread with Victoria crater and other 'when' / 'where' threads are some of the ugliest at UMSF.

For those reasons, this thread is closed.
