In addition to revealing your age on Mars, the tool also calculates your birthday on every planet in the solar system.

The time calculator, created by the museum Exploratorium, allows you to find out what your age on mars, Pluto, Saturn, among others. In addition to showing how old you would be on each of the planets in the solar system, the tool also shows you when your birthday would be.  t5a2w

Earth years are calculated according to the time it takes the Earth to perform the translation movement, that is, to make a complete revolution around the Sun. But each planet moves at a different speed. While here you would have to wait 365 days to celebrate another year of life, on Mercury you would have a birthday every 88 days. THE calculator is very simple to use. All you have to do is enter your date of birth to know how old you would be on another planet. 

Even though it is not possible to live in other realities of time in space, discovering the variations of each planet is interesting to say the least. But it is worth ing that although the human species is not yet interplanetary, first private company to send a manned spaceflight into space. Well, if Elon Musk wasn't an earthling he would be 26 years old. age on mars, the planet where he intends to build the first self-sustaining Martian city. Already here on Earth he is 49 years old.

There are no rules that determine rates of translation or rotation, so days and years are not linear throughout the solar system. In the case of translation, gravity and the mass of each planet are the main responsible for the time differences. The gravitational force of the Sun acts with greater intensity on planets closer to the star. Also, the greater the mass of a planet, the greater the force of attraction. And the further away or the less mass it has, the less the attraction will be. This means that lighter planets closer to the Sun take less time to complete the translation movement. Those that are further away and heavier can take a few hundred Earth years to complete a complete revolution around the Sun, as is the case with Pluto, which can take up to 248 years. 

It is also necessary to consider the rotation movement, that is, the time that each planet takes to go around itself. Rotation is responsible for the ing of days. The Earth, for example, takes 24 hours to revolve around itself, but Venus can take up to 243 days to rotate once. While on Jupiter the days can go by faster, after all, the giant can rotate on its own axis every 10 Earth hours. Basically, it is the translation and rotation movements that are responsible for making the time count on the planets vary so much.

Here's how long each planet takes to complete one year:

  • Mercury: 87,97 days
  • Venus: 224,7 days
  • Earth: 365,26 days 
  • Mars: 1,88 years
  • Jupiter: 11,86 years
  • Saturn: 29,46 years
  • Uranus: 84,01 years
  • Neptune: 164,79 years
  • Pluto: 248,59 years
