LO in general, from its world building to relationships to even characters are all held together by chewed up bubble gum and shoe strings, and that’s being generous. That’s why her made up relationships fail even the tiniest bit of scrutiny. Random ships can work if the work is put in to make them believable and build up a realistic relationship and characters, but going off her writing and art choices, it’s pretty clear RS doesn’t like putting any work in at all, even the bare minimum. At the best case, it’d make more sense if they developed a relationship after Daphne’s death, not randomly before it, and especially not when it’s only there to change Thanatos’ legitimate critiques of Persephone and justify how awful HxP are because Daphne is nothing but a prop to them. What is there to them beyond RS being bored and trying to demonize Apollo even more and recreate another “bubbly flower goddess with a gloomy death god” aesthetic? They are the pinnacle of her bulldozing any sense of logic or reason to just make up whatever. A better “made up” ship for Athena would have been her in an ace relationship with Medusa or Arachne if LO really wanted one of the maidens to be in a relationship so badly, and Hestia could have been left as the Aro/Ace rep. Hestia/Athena for example is just what seems like a presumably straight woman thinking maiden goddesses are just “secret lesbians” and they can “get over their asexuality once they find the right person”, which is, um, kinda homophobic and acephobic especially. LO in comparison doesn't put this thought in. Theseus and Asterius of course share the same myth and the game makes a point to say they forgave each other in death and formed a close bond, while Zag/Than/Meg are all young, rebellious Underworld denizens who have a long built up history and relationships to each other. The difference is they share stuff in common to make it make sense. See, stuff like HADES (the game) also has made up ships that weren't in mythology, such as Asterius and Theseus or Zagreus/Thanatos/Megaera. Limited sight might/(should?) be possible with some recognition of shadows and shapes.4. BUT reading the comments, and reading the very cool Venus shadow article in the questions comments, my assumption might be wrong. I think 3%-4% of the brightness of a 3/4 moon would be pushing the limit though and probably not bright enough to see for the most people. Marquitas Marrakesh Marrakeshs Marriott Marriotts Mars Marss Marsala. "Enough to see" is a tough question, because sight depends on not just the light source but the reflectivity of your surroundings and there's some variation in how well individuals can see in the dark and, obviously, on how clear the night sky is on Mars on that particular night. DiMaggio DiMaggios Diaghilev Diaghilevs Dial Dials Diana Dianas Diane. But Phobos never becomes full, it gets a bit over 3/4s, then it enters Mars' shadow. As Phobos approaches full, it enters Mars' shadow and it's brightness drops significantly (whether it turns red like a blood moon or just vanishes - I'm not sure, perhaps that's best for another question). That casts a huge shadow, so there's no such thing, from Mars, as a full Phobos. Phobos is so close to Mars that from the surface of Phobos, Mars takes up about 40 degrees of arc in the sky. The Moon is particularly cratered so a half moon is significantly less than half as bright as a full moon. That would be peak brightness (and if you want to fuss about Mars' Perihelion and say 5% the brightness of a full moon, fair enough, but lets not get ahead of ourselves).īrightness of our Moon varies depending how good a reflector it's surface is, and how much of the surface is in shadow. Multiply that by 25% the brightness to area and that's just 4% the brightness of a full moon. Working out the numbers, the size of phobos in the Martian sky would be on average 63.5/158 or 40% the diameter, or 16% the size of Earth's Moon from Earth. about 5,986 km, that's about 63.5 times closer than the Moon is to the surface of the Earth. Averaging that out to 22, then Phobos is 1/158 the diameter of the Moon, but it's closer to Mars' surface. Phobos is an odd shape, about 27x22x18 km. That gives it a brightness to area of just over 25% the brightness of the moon. Darker than the Moon with an average albedo of about 0.12, so it reflects about 59% as well as the Moon does. Phobos has an albedo of about 0.071 which is pretty dark. On this fine Friday, you happen to have approached a site of knowledge. Taking Mars' average distance from the sun of 1.52 AU, the sun would be 43% as bright. Welcome searcher I have fished you out of the web on purpose, and for your own good.
