Mars is the
fourth
planet from the
Sun in
the
Solar System. Named after the
Roman
god of war,
Mars, it is often described as the "Red Planet" as the
iron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it a
reddish appearance.[13]
Mars is a
terrestrial planet with a thin
atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the
impact craters of the
Moon
and the volcanoes, valleys, deserts, and
polar ice caps of
Earth.
The
rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise
similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons.
Mars is the site of
Olympus Mons, the highest known mountain within the Solar
System, and of
Valles Marineris, the largest canyon. The smooth
Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the
planet and may be a giant impact feature. |
