red

The Martian soil appears red in every part of Mars, and we can see Mars as a red point of light when we look up in the night sky. Mars has red soil because the soil contains iron oxide, and the iron has rusted. This may signify that there might once have been water on Mars, because iron minerals need water to rust.
