What is that picture? That’s interesting.
DiCicco was the first to do it, back in the days before digital cameras.
NASA's pathfinder did one on Mars.
On earth the southern loop is exaggerated by the phasing of the vernal equinox and perihelion. (In 12,000 years, the northern loop will be larger, in 6000, about equal.) On Mars, because of his greater orbital eccentricity and the phasing between Mars' vernal equinox and perihelion, the southern loop has been pinched into a point.
