Facts about mars the planet?

For starters, Mars has a very thin atmosphere; mostly carbon dioxide, but dust storms can cover the whole planet for months at a time. About every two years the Earth and Mars come close together. The planet has two moons. (Deimos and Phobos.) There are a number of volcanoes on Mars but none seem to be geologically active. Mars also has large canyons, dust storms, sand dunes, polar ice caps and other features similar to those found on Earth. Hope this helps! :)
