Psssst...a little 5th grade astronomy lesson...day light hrs on other planets can be measured differently as sunrise and sunset varies...a watch is not always a viable option especially since most other planets do not have a standard 24hr period like......Earth?
Avg Mars day 24.66 hrs
Avg Lunar Day 24.56 hrs
Avg Venus Day - 243 EARTH days (see why a watch would be impractical?)
BTW....has anyone been paying attention to the Asian space race lately?
