How much have the old tracks discolored? or
faded? or changed albedo since then?
Use the new tracks as a control.
The differences would be fairly subtle, but scientifically measurable
and useful.

  - I'm sure they are. Dust accumulation? Chemical changes? UV changes? Changes in color? - Tom Brosz - 12/16/2004 12:34:03 AM
