When we gaze across at our distant sister world, we exist within our own time zone; within our own reality and its peculiar traits. What we see on Mars ... is a perception of Mars from our own stand point. It's our own comparisons with earth and our time zone that govern what we perceive of Mars. We have to remember it is a different world, and therefore a different reality. It may exist on the same dimension as us ... but that is as far as it goes. We have our constraints known as time ... it governs our life with its days; its minutes and hours and days; it's aeons; its centuries and years; it's decades etc. That is an earthly thing. So what is the time on Mars? What governs its peoples?
