Why is Mars important to the solar system?

Answer 1

Mars the roman God of War was very important to the people in Rome. He was their patron god. In fact he was so important that an entire month (March) was dedicated to him! They also honored him with many temples and celebrations throughout the year.

Answer 2

There are two ways for us to get to Mars. The first way is to reduce mission costs to such a degree that private enterprises could afford to undertake them. This is a job for the engineers. The second way is to increase the perceived value or economic return of missions to Mars making higher mission costs more acceptable. This is a job for the space activist community. Planets also undergo evolution. Other than spinoffs, probably the most immediate benefits of Mars missions will be in the arena of Planetary Science and Comparative Planetology. The basic question we want to answer is why is the Earth such a nice place to live, and will it always be so nice. Falling into this category are planetary evolution, planetary atmospheres, planetary hydrology, planetary geophysics, and climate change. A report issued by the National Academy of Sciences in 1978 stated that "the triad of terrestrial planets, Earth, Mars, and Venus, should receive the major focus in exploration... The ultimate goal in their exploration is to understand the present state and evolution of terrestrial planets with atmospheres. The comparative planetology of these bodies is a key to the understanding of the formation of the Earth, its atmosphere and oceans, and the physical and chemical conditions that led to the origin and evolution of life." By studying surface morphology, chemical makeup, lithology, the distribution of surface materials, and the interior structure of Mars, we may begin to understand how our two planets turned out so differently. Permanently staffed laboratories on Mars would be able to carry out extensive analysis of Martian surface samples and environment. The idea of man as an important component of Martian studies is supported by a recent OTA report which states that "Experts in field research methods believe that... human explorers are likely to be most effective in carrying out geological field studies... or searching for signs of indigenous existing or fossil life on Mars." Previous study of other worlds has had a bearing on our understanding of volcanoes, earthquakes, and weather.

Answer 3

Because we would be to hot by now and there would not be life on Earth.-@#EILEEN.<3
