420 on Earth · 159 on Mars

420 → 159

lbf
Calculated

NASA Mars/Earth surface-gravity ratio 0.379. 420 × 0.379 = 159.18. Mars is 38%. Not 42.

The same 420, a third field. NASA’s Mars fact sheet prints 3.71 m/s² against Earth’s 9.80. The ratio is 0.379. Four hundred twenty times that is 159. The Moon gave 69. Mars gives 159. Thirty-eight percent of Earth is not forty-two. Close. Not a 42. The body did not change. Anyway.

What it supports

NSSDC Mars Fact Sheet, surface gravity 3.71 / 9.80 = 0.379. Same operation as the Moon card. Different world.

What it does not

Not 42. Not 69. Not 142 sols. Not a landing clock.

Calculation

420 × 0.379 = 159.18. g_Mars 3.71 m/s², g_Earth 9.80 m/s². 38% ≠ 42%.

W = mg. NASA Mars/Earth table as printed. 38% is not 42.
