Planet Mars

It can be with the light it reflects from the sun, but not over long distances. Mars does not emit light except in the very long wavelengths (infra red). It is non-luminous. It is only visible because of the light it reflects, as the first answer states.

Two prominent features of Mars are Olympus Mons, the larest volcano in our solar system, and Valles Marineris, the largest canyon in our solar system.

Through amateur telescopes the polar ice caps of Mars (mostly carbon dioxide frost) can also sometimes be seen.

About 5 times denser, like the Mercury and Venus. Trust

Mars is not luminous in the same way as stars or celestial objects that emit their own light. Mars appears bright in the night sky because it reflects sunlight, but it does not produce its own light like a star.

The escape velocity on the planet Saturn is 35.5 kilometre per second. That is, a body has to be projected with a velocity of 35.5 kilometre per second so that it can escape from the gravitational pull of the planet. (Escape velocity on the earth is about 11.2 kilometre per second.)

I think in 2001.

he pathfinder was a mission to mars. it collected alot of info about mars that we did not knw before. like the dust on mars is very thin. what the atmosphere is made up of. the diversity of the rocks. the weather.

No there is no food (as we would know it) on Mars.

The planet is barren, has no breathable atmosphere and has one third of the gravity of the earth.

Presently no life forms (animals or plants) have been discovered on the planet, although there seems to be a fair amount of water/ ice trapped below the surface.

Mars has been known since ancient times and was observed by various civilizations such as the Babylonians, Egyptians, and Greeks. The first recorded observation of Mars dates back to ancient Egypt around 1534 BCE. The planet was officially named Mars by the Romans.

There have been no human space missions to Mars. The only missions to Mars to date have been through flybys with space craft, orbiters, and land rovers.

The next one in is Earth, the next one out is Jupiter, although there is a dwarf planet in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter called Ceres.

As of July 2014, no animal has been sent to Mars yet. In 2008 it was announced that Russia planned to send monkeys to Mars, but this hasn't happened yet.

Intellectual curiosity refers to a strong desire to learn, explore, and seek knowledge in various subjects. It involves being naturally inquisitive, asking questions, and actively engaging in the pursuit of understanding complex ideas or concepts. Individuals with intellectual curiosity tend to be open-minded, critical thinkers, and have a passion for continuous learning.

Mars looks red from earth because of the high level of ironixide or 'rust'. Mars is sometimes called 'the red planet' because of this.

The average gravitational acceleration on Mars is approximately 3.7 m/s^2, which is about 0.38 times the gravitational acceleration on Earth. This means objects on Mars weigh less compared to on Earth due to the weaker gravitational pull.

In free space a radio wave travels at about 300,000 kilometers per second. The speed doesn't depend on frequency.

The distance of Earth from Mars is variable.

I presume the question means a distance of 8.00 x 107 kilometers.

So, the answer is about 80,000,000/300,000 seconds.

That's about 800/3 = about 267 seconds. That's about 4 minutes and 27 seconds.

Humans have not yet set foot on Mars primarily due to the significant technical and logistical challenges involved in sending a crewed mission to the planet. These challenges include the long duration of the journey, radiation exposure, life support systems, landing safely on Mars, and ensuring the crew's survival on the harsh Martian surface. Plans are being developed for future crewed missions to Mars, with ongoing research and advancements in technology aimed at overcoming these obstacles.

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.

Mars is 6,792 km or 4,220 miles at its equator.

"Mars, the Bringer of War" is the first movement in Gustav Holst's orchestral suite, "The Planets." It is a powerful and aggressive piece of music that captures the idea of war and conflict through its driving rhythms and intense melodies. Holst drew inspiration from the Roman god of war, Mars, for this movement.

Yes, exclusively. The entire surface of the Moon is rock in one form or another.

Mars is brightest when it is closest to Earth due to its proximity and position in its orbit, making it easier to see in the night sky. This phenomenon occurs because the amount of sunlight reflecting off Mars is maximized when it is at its closest point to Earth.

No human being has ever walked on any astronomical body except

the Earth and the moon.

At its closest approach to Earth, Mars is roughly 140 times farther

from us than the moon is.

Man-made robotic hardware has been placed on the surface of Mars,

but nothing from Mars has ever been brought back to Earth.

Mars has a reddish color due to iron oxide on its surface, giving it the nickname "Red Planet." It has a thin atmosphere that appears hazy and dusty from a distance. The planet also has polar ice caps that can be seen from telescopes on Earth.

A person would weigh more on Saturn than they do on Earth due to the lack of gravity on Saturn. This is true for every planet in the solar system. For example, on Saturn an adult weighing 150 pounds would weigh 159.63 pounds on Saturn.
