On the subject, this might be interesting to some. A NASA Mars lander

The message

Following up to "La Puce" :

now we've got both measurement methods given, and that very

Doesn't confuse me. I only have trouble nowadays with Fahrenheit.

So do I at present - not enough of them.

Fahrenheit was German.

And the other mile came from the Romans.
