Mars has day and night for the same reasons that Earth has day and night. Mars, like Earth, rotates on an axis. That means that the Mars is spinning like a top. As the planet spins, half of it is facing the sun, and the other half isn't. So the half that is facing the sun experiences daytime, and the other half has nighttime. The planet spins around so the the same half is facing the sun every 24.6 (almost 25) hours. This is the same way that we see night and day, except Earth spins a little faster, so we have a complete day and night every 24 hours.
What else can I help you with?
Does Mars have day and night?
Yes, Mars experiences day and night cycles similar to Earth. A day on Mars, called a sol, lasts approximately 24.6 hours. This is very close to Earth's day length.
Is mars cold in day time?
Yes, Mars is cold during the daytime. The average temperature on Mars is around -80 degrees Fahrenheit (-62 degrees Celsius) during the day. Temperature variations can occur depending on the location and season, but overall Mars remains a cold planet compared to Earth.
What time is it on Mars?
THERE IS NO TIME ZONE ON MARS..... And since no one has ever set foot on mars there is no way to calculate time. When an unmanned spaceship arrives at Mars it is probably calculated to Houston (central) time.
A day and night on mars is 25 hours explain why there is daytime and night-time on mars?
Well kind sir, The planet mars, rather like our own earth, has a spin, does it not? This spin is perpendicular to the plane of the solar system, the plane that all of our fine planets spin around the sun on. Therefore, night on the red planet is created when it spins the observer around to the dark side, and day to the night. I hope this has been a satisfactory answer!! -Mr. Magorium.
Does Mars go cold at night?
Yes, Mars experiences large temperature fluctuations between day and night due to its thin atmosphere, which cannot retain heat. During the night, temperatures can drop significantly, causing it to become very cold.
Does Mars have day and night?

Why is there day and night in Mars?
Mars rotates about it's axis, so if you were to stay at close to one point on mars for a martian day, then for half the day you would face the sun(day), then later on when mars had rotated round, the part of mars you were on would not be facing the sun(night).

Does the planet Mars possess a day?
Mars rotates, and therefore possesses both day and night. It's length of day is believed to be much the same as that of earth.
Is there day and night in Mars?

How long does it take for day to turn to night on Mars?
