It shouldn't matter, you're in TX. SO you're an hour behind us, just like you are behind me in life. So your 12 would be like our 12. Mars is supposed to be visiable for acouple hours, so you don't have to REALLY look up at 12am. But at that time, its when it alines at a certain point, to give us the perfect point of view.
Great E-thugging Alex!
