Mars
Mars, the fourth planet from the sun, is often called the “Red Planet” due to its reddish appearance. It has a diverse surface with features like vast plains, towering volcanoes, and deep canyons. The thin atmosphere is primarily composed of carbon dioxide, contributing to a cold and dry climate. Evidence suggests Mars once had liquid water, and ice currently exists at the polar caps and beneath the surface. Ongoing exploration, including missions by rovers like Curiosity, aims to uncover the planet’s history and potential for life. Mars holds a key place in future human space exploration plans, with efforts focused on understanding its geology and the possibility of sustaining human life.
