So, is the route map in reply #1822 the most current? I was thinking that that was yestersols map.
BTW, we all agree that 'sol' is pronounced like 'soul' or 'sole' and not 'saul'. (Being a latin derived word) |

A thought just occurred - is the word 'sol' only applicable to Mars? If we had a rover on Mercury or Vemus, what word would we use?
Chris. PS. It just ocurred to me. If we had put use planet names to distinguish where a sol was, then a day on Mars could be referred to as an aresol
