Planet Mars

The reddish-orange color of Mars is due to iron oxide, also known as rust, on its surface. The iron in the rocks reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere, causing the surface to appear red. Additionally, the fine dust on Mars reflects sunlight in a way that gives the planet its distinctive color.

Water on Mars exists mainly in the form of ice at the polar ice caps and underground. However, some evidence suggests that liquid water may occasionally flow on the surface during certain conditions. The thin atmosphere and low atmospheric pressure on Mars limit water from existing as a liquid in most places on the planet.

9. Pluto - if you still consider it as a planet So Earth and Jupiter are Mars' closest neighbors

they are trying getting enough feul. they want more things to know about mars before they just go. that is why they are waiting at least until 2012 to go to mars.

Mars' two moons, Phobos and Deimos, have irregular shapes similar to asteroids because they are thought to be captured asteroids. They likely were formed elsewhere in the solar system and were captured by Mars' gravity. Their composition and surface features also suggest they have asteroid-like origins.

Viking 1 and Viking 2 were launched by the US in 1975. Both probes traveled to Mars, took photos of large expanses of the planet's surface from orbit, and released landers. The Viking 1 lander later transmitted the first pictures from the Martian surface. Both landers carried experiments designed to detect living organisms or life processes, but neither of them found any convincing signs of life. The Vikings and their landers were unmanned (robotic) spacecraft.

mars is called the red planet because it has a slightly reddish tinge when you see it in the sky. the atmosphere of Mars is mostly carbon dioxide and has only 1 percent the pressure of Earth's atmosphere. You could walk around on Mars but you would have to wear an airtight suit and carry your own air, like a scuba diver. Mars has clouds but they are very thin compared to the clouds on earth.

from the natural explorer text book

Yes, it is believed that Mars once had water on its surface in the form of rivers, lakes, and possibly even oceans. Evidence such as dried-up riverbeds, sedimentary rock formations, and polar ice caps supports this theory. However, the water on Mars today mainly exists as ice and vapor.

Heavy is not a term used in astronomy as an object in space has no weight.

It does have, however, mass.

The average temperature on Mars in December ranges from about -195°F (-125°C) at its coldest to around -80°F (-60°C) at its warmest. Mars has a very thin atmosphere, so temperatures can vary significantly between day and night.

On average, the distance from Mars to the Moon ranges from about 225 million kilometers to 402 million kilometers. The actual distance can vary due to the elliptical orbits of both celestial bodies.

It's named after the Roman god Mars, so the word is the same.

The "Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter" was sent to Mars in August 2005, arriving there in 2006.

The probe "Mars Science Laboratory" and its rover, Curiosity, were launched on November 26, 2011 and were scheduled to arrive at Mars in August, 2012.

Compared to Earth, Mars is a tiny world. In fact, Mars' mass is only 10% the mass of the Earth. Mass of Mars is 0.107 the mass of Earth. Why does Mars have such a low mass? Partly it's because it's so small. Mars has a radius half the size of the Earth. And partly it's because Mars has a much lower density than Earth.

Mars has both sand and dirt on its surface. The reddish color of the soil and sand is due to iron oxide, commonly known as rust. The presence of sand and dirt on Mars has been observed through images and data collected from rovers and satellites.

A day on Mars, known as a sol, is approximately 24 hours and 37 minutes. As the sun sets on Mars, the length of twilight can vary depending on the atmospheric conditions, but it generally takes about 30 minutes for dusk to transition into full darkness.

Mars currently does not have the necessary environment to support human life as we know it. The lack of a breathable atmosphere, extreme temperatures, and low air pressure make it difficult for humans to survive without extensive life support systems. However, efforts are being made to explore the possibility of terraforming Mars to make it more habitable for humans in the future.

The Mars Explorer robot named after a famous animated character is named WALL-E, after the Pixar character from the movie "WALL-E."

One piece of evidence is that there are many dry river channels in the martian southern hemisphere, like those found on earth. This suggests that water made these channels, and that means that at some point there was water on mars. Water means that the temperature was above 320F for at least some part of the year, and that it was humid enough so that the water would not instantly evaporate.

If you meant to spell moons then the answer is 2. Their names are Phobos, which means means fear, and Deimos, which means panic. If you meant mons as in the mountain name then, as far as I know, there is only one and that's Olympus Mons. It is the largest volcano (extinct but still a volcano) in the galaxy! It's three times as tall as Mt. Everest, it's base is the size if the state of Arizona and the hole on top is the size of the state of Rhode Island. I hope this helps

356. There are about 0.975 Martian days in one Earth day, and 365.25 Earth days in one Earth year, and 0.975 * 365.25 ≈ 356.009.

The first object to land on the surface of Mars was the Soviet spacecraft Mars 3, which successfully landed on December 2, 1971.
