Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun in our solar system and is often referred to as the "Red Planet" due to its distinctive reddish appearance, caused by iron oxide (rust) on its surface. Mars has a thin atmosphere primarily composed of carbon dioxide, and its surface features include vast plains, towering volcanoes, deep canyons, and polar ice caps. It has two small, irregularly shaped moons named Phobos and Deimos. Mars has been a focus of scientific exploration, with various robotic missions studying its geology and climate to understand its potential for past or present life. Additionally, Mars has been a subject of interest for future human exploration and colonization.
