Alright, I'm home, have food in my belly, and am comfy in front of the computer. Let's figure this out together!

First of all, MC 0022 ≠ AC 211. EVER! Why? 2 calculations that I worked out:

EXAMPLE A
Let's go with 1 Mars year = roughly 2 Earth years
The year is now MC 0022, thus 44 earth years have passed (22 x 2 = 44).
AC 187 + 44 years = 231
SOOOOOO, the year is actually AC 231.
MC 0022 = AC 231, NOT AC 211
It's been 36 years since AC 195; If the boys were 15 in AC 195, then they are now 51 years old.
The present year is MC 0022 (AC 231), We know that Duo Jr. is 15 years old, meaning he was born in AC 216. If Duo & Hilde are in fact the parents, that means that they were 36 when Jr. came about, making the whole Jr. might be Hilde & Duo's much more plausible.


EXAMPLE B
1 Mars years = 1.8808 Julian/Earth years (I looked it up); Let's just work with 1.88
22 mars years x 1.88 earth years = 41.36 years
AC 187 + 41 years = AC 228
MC 0022 = AC 228
This calculation makes our pilots 48 years old in the present MC 0022.
According to this, Duo Jr. was born in AC 213, making Duo 33 years old. Still old enough to make him and Hilde the plausible parents.

Does this make sense? Can anyone refute me here? If this is actually correct, can we go with this?
P.S. I will be back later to figure more stuff out, so bare with me for a day or two ^_^
