In the Solar System, Mars is that the fourth planet from the
Sun. Mars was named within the honor of the Roman's God of War, Mars.


Mars will simply be seen from Earth with the
naked eye. Mars has approximately 0.5 the diameter of Earth. it's less dense
than Earth. Mars is far smaller than Earth; however its surface space is
concerning identical because the land surface space of Earth.


The atmosphere of Mars is sort of completely different from
that of Earth. it's composed primarily of carbon dioxide with little amounts of
alternative gases. The six most typical parts of the atmosphere are: Carbon
Dioxide, Nitrogen , Argon, Oxygen, Water, Neon. The quantities of those
parts are:
(CO2)- 95.32%, (N2)- 2.7%, (Ar)- 1.6%, (O2)- 0.13%, (H2O)-
0.03% , Ne- 0.00025 % .
The average recorded temperature on Mars is -63° C (-81° F)
with a most temperature of 20° C (68° F) and a minimum of -140° C (-220° F).
The first spacecraft to go to Mars was Mariner 4 in 1965. On
1997 July 4, Mars Pathfinder landed successfully on Mars. In 2004 the Mars
Expedition Rovers "Spirit" and "Opportunity" landed on Mars
sending back geologic information and plenty of footage. In 2005, radar
information revealed the presence of enormous quantities of water ice at the
poles and at mid-latitudes. The Mars rover Spirit sampled chemical compounds
containing water molecules in March 2007. On July 31, 2008, The Phoenix lander
directly sampled water ice in shallow Martian soil.
