Mars stays direct all year in 2028. No retrograde station falls in this calendar year.
Where these times come from
Every station is the exact moment Mars's apparent motion changes direction, found by scanning the real ephemeris and bisecting to the minute, the same engine that powers current transits and daily horoscopes. Positions are geocentric and tropical. Shadow dates mark when Mars first reaches (and later clears) the degree range it retraces.
