Transit of Martian satellites

Masaki Kouda Mar 19, 2004

Hi Guiders.
I was impressed that Oppotunity caught photo of
transits of Martian satellites, Phobos and Deimos.

I try to show them on the Guide.

Set location on the "Mars", 2.06S, 6W, Oppotunity's position.
Set Date on 4 Mar. for Deimos transit.
Start animation. Then Deimos went closer and closer to tha Sun.
But transit was not happen.

As the same, set date on 7 MAr. for Phobos transit.
Start animation, but transit was not happen.

I know Bill wrote as " I was unable to find an accurate theory for some
time"

When I post about this on another ML, I learned new acculate theory is
availablenow. These name is ESAPHO (for Phobos) and ESADE (for Deimos).

Bill, do you have plan to use these theory for Guide ?
