Good news! This month's moon & mars hotspots narrow down the list of possible hotspot combinations from 1401 to 1333 possibilites. For comparison the theoretical minimum that occurs when the exact values of the a, b, c, and d constants in the equation below are known is 1056.

Here is the updated list of possible hotspot combinations. I ungrayed the points that were grayed out on the previous list, because the condition I was using to gray out points turned out to be false.

Spoiler

The updated formula:

a, b, c, and d are constants
x is a value chosen randomly from the range 0 <= x < 1 every month

moon latitude = ROUND( 169*(x + a) ) modulus 169
moon longitude = ROUND( 359*(x + b) ) modulus 359
mars latitude = ROUND( 169*(x + c) ) modulus 169
mars longitude = ROUND( 359*(x + d) ) modulus 359

The parameters a, b, c, and d have to meet the following inequalities to be consistent with all the hotspot locations observed so far:

0.6045557185475763 < b-a < 0.6051161180794778
0.8241169586787757 < c-a < 0.8262926274496876
0.906808854312604 < d-a < 0.9087372879959124
0.21956124013119938 < c-b < 0.22117650937020977
0.3020059006774241 < d-b < 0.3036211699164345
0.08244466054622474 < d-c < 0.08297209539977912

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And also, here is the updated list of latitudes that have been confirmed to work or fail. As before, latitudes that have been confirmed to work are in black, and latitudes that have been confirmed to fail are in red and have curly braces around them:

Spoiler

And here's the version with the positive and negative latitudes combined, since it's appears the floating point rounding error is positive/negative symmetric:

Probs a joke.

 

First time I tried it, it said invalid coordinates.

 

Then, I messed up and got this...  You're welcome!

Try this:

(-81, 44) URL Segment: lon=44&lat=-81

If that doesn't work, try these:

(-81, 45) URL Segment: lon=45&lat=-81
(-82, 44) URL Segment: lon=44&lat=-82
