Planet Report Research Guide
Mars Fact File
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun. It is often called the Red Planet because rusty iron-rich dust gives much of its surface a reddish color. Mars is smaller than Earth. Its surface has volcanoes, canyons, plains, and many craters. Olympus Mons, a volcano on Mars, is the largest known volcano in the solar system. Valles Marineris is a vast canyon system. Mars has a thin atmosphere made mostly of carbon dioxide. Temperatures are usually very cold, though they vary by location and season. Dust storms can spread across large areas. Mars has two small moons, Phobos and Deimos. Scientists study Mars to learn how planets change and whether simple life could ever have existed there.
