Mars has mass, and mass reflects radiant energy such as sunlight. Against the dark background of space, Mars reflects enough light to be clearly visible even across the solar system, at a distance of over 200 million miles. Of course, the Sun's light is quite intense, so that even a LITTLE bit of reflection makes it quite visible. Objects far smaller than Mars, and far more distant, are still visible.

Mars is visible from Earth in the night sky because of its orbit around the Sun.
