Nasa missions have found lots of evidence that mars was much wetter and warmer, with a thicker atmosphere, billions of years ago.
But billions of years ago, scientific evidence suggests that it had a thick atmosphere, which kept it warm enough to support flowing water on its surface. Mars is the fourth planet in the solar system in order of distance from the sun and the seventh in size and mass It is a periodically conspicuous reddish object in the night sky A nasa mission is set to launch twin spacecraft on a journey to mars
The robotic orbiters could lift off atop blue origin’s new glenn rocket as soon as sunday. 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. Cape canaveral space force station — nasa and blue origin are planning to launch the escapade mission, where a pair of satellites will study mars' magnetosphere
Mars once had liquid water on its surface and could have supported life
Scientists are uncovering how mars transformed into the cold, dry desert world it is today.
