Is there any human life forms on Mars?

No. Humans only live on Earth. There is likely no life at all on Mars.

What movement does Mars actually experience from January through August?

Mars experiences an elliptical orbit around the Sun, causing it to move at varying speeds throughout the year. From January through August, Mars moves in its orbit, gradually changing its position relative to Earth and the rest of the solar system. During this time, its apparent motion in the night sky may appear to be retrograde (moving backward) for a period due to the differing speeds and distances between Mars and Earth.

Is mars the second coldest planet?

No, Neptune is the second coldest planet (Uranus is the coldest.)

Mars is the coldest of the four inner planets.

How old would you be on mars if you are 14?

On Mars, a year is approximately 687 Earth days. If you were 14 years old on Earth, you would be around 7.39 years old on Mars.

Who directed Mars Attacks?

Tim Burton was the director, and the producer as well, of the 1996 film Mars Attacks. Tim Burton's other director credits include Batman and Batman Returns, Edward Scissorhands, the 2001 Planet of the Apes, and the 2005 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Tim Burton is currently working on a new Alice in Wonderland.

Are there 100-year-long storms on Mars?

Mars does not have weather patterns like Earth, so the concept of a "100-year-long storm" as we understand it does not apply. However, Mars does experience large dust storms that can cover the entire planet and last for weeks or months. These dust storms can vary in intensity and frequency.

How many moons fit into Mars?

The volume of Mars is 0.151 times that of the Earth

The volume of the Moon is 0.02 times that of the Earth

So 0.151/0.02 = 7.55 Moons fit inside Mars.

What are the water forms found on Mars?

Water forms on Mars include ice caps at the poles, frozen water in the subsurface, and possible briny water streaks known as recurring slope lineae (RSL). There is also evidence of ancient river valleys and lakes that suggest liquid water once flowed on the surface of Mars.

Does Mars have a sun?

No, it does not. The earth has a moon, and Mars does not. It is earth's moon, earth and the sun that are involved in eclipses. All of them. Without a moon, Mars cannot experience an eclipse.

How hot is it on Mars during springtime?

How hot is it on Mars in Spring and Fall? How hot is it on Mars in Spring and Fall?

What has happened to the water on Mars?

What happened to the water on mars h'm its simple really.

A long time ago about 10000 million million years ago mars had water all over its surface in seas and oceans like earth. But one day a giant solar flare burst-ed out of the sun straight at mars. Mars had a ozone to protect but not as strong as earths. The solar flare made the ozone layer evaporate and evaporated all the water mars had ever had except for the polar ice caps. Then mars became a dirt land of nothing. Mars had water but probably never will again.

Is there any air resistance on Mars?

Yes, Mars has a thin atmosphere composed mostly of carbon dioxide, which produces some resistance when objects move through it. However, the air resistance is much lower than on Earth due to the low atmospheric pressure on Mars.

How many people can occupy mars?

400. The 400 richest Amercians control more then the poorest 150 million. This .0000035 percent of all households in the United States will need a new home once people figure this out. I suggest we send them to Mars.

What is the orbital period of Mars?

The orbital period of Mars is 687 Earth days, or 1.88 Earth years. That is about 668 sols (Martian days).

Which is bigger Mars or Mercury?

Mars diameter is 6792 km, while Mercurys diameter is 4879 km, so Mars is bigger. Mercury is the smallest of the eight planets, Mars is the second smallest after Mercury.

Why were the viking spacecraft sterilized before they were launched?

In order to not contaminate Mars with any possible life forms from Earth.

Microbes are very resilient, and theoretically can survive the voyage through space and the conditions on Mars.

Are there really aliens and chimpanzees on the planet mars?

There is no evidence that life currently exists on Mars.

Alien: a foreigner, someone who is not a naturalized citizen of the place where they are living. If and when humans travel from Earth to Mars, the humans will be aliens there.

How far is Earth from Mars in Earth minutes?

Minutes are a unit of time, not of distance. Perhaps you mean LIGHT minutes, which refer to the distance light travels in a minute. Earth is 1 AU from the sun, which takes light about 8 minutes and 20 seconds. Mars is about 1.5 AU, so when earth and Mars are on the same side of the sun, the distance between them is 0.5 AU. Light would take four minutes, 10 seconds to cross that gap. When Mars and Earth are on opposite sides of the sun, the distance between them is 2.5 AU, which would take light nearly 21 minutes to cross.

On average, Earth and Mars would be at roughly right angles to the sun, so you could use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance of their hypotenuse: About 1.8 AU. I'll leave the conversion of this into light time as an exercise for the gentle reader.

What does Mars volta mean?

Mars volta is basicaly a term that Omar Rodriguez Lopez and Cedric Bixler Zalava came up with.When they put Mars and Volta together,they guess it had a nice sound to it.Cedric got the term "Volta" from one of his favorite philosophers.

Why do mars rovers have motors in each wheel?

Mars rovers have motors in each wheel because it allows for more precise control of movement, better traction on uneven terrain, and the ability to navigate challenging obstacles. Having separate motors in each wheel also provides redundancy in case one motor fails, ensuring the rover can continue to operate effectively.

How long does a dust storm on mars last?

The dust storm in Australia lasted for a day. It began in South Australia and the Northern Territory and then moved eastwards and north. In Sydney, it began before dawn and lasted well into the afternoon, whilst it moved into Brisbane just before noon and was still hanging around at midnight. North Queensland was expected to experience the storm within one-two days.

Is Mars male or female?

The God mars was male. The planet is genderless

A martian day is how many earth hours long?

The average length of a Martian sidereal day is 24h 37m 22.663s (based on SI units), and the length of its solar day is 24h 39m 35.244s (the latter is known as a sol, more precisely 88,775.24409 seconds). The corresponding values for Earth are 23h 56m 04.2s and 24h 00m 00.002s, respectively. This yields a conversion factor of 1.027491 sols/day. Thus Mars's solar day is only about 2.7% longer than Earth's.

How big is Venus's compared to mars?

Venus is slightly smaller than Earth, with a diameter of about 12,104 kilometers, while Mars is smaller than both Venus and Earth, with a diameter of about 6,779 kilometers. So, Venus is significantly larger than Mars.
