predicting closest approach between Earth and Mars - cdeaglejr - 09-26-2022 11:56 AM This HP Prime program can be used to predict closest approach between the Earth and Mars. The software will interactively request user inputs for an initial calendar year and a search duration in days. The code will calculate and print the calendar date, UTC time and the Earth-to-Mars distance in both astronomical units and kilometers for any minima found during the search.
