Ever before robots were sent to our close neighbour Mars, we've always been curious to know what exists outside our planet and what life will be like on other planets. So many questions have been raised and some answers have been given, some of which could be mere fiction or hypothesis-like the Aliens...gosh! But below is a compilation of established facts from the exploration of the Red planet.

First fact: Mars is the only known planet occupied only by robots....lol....i just had to chip that in somehow.
ok the facts below;






1. Mars atmosphere is made up mainly of carbondioxide. It also has different gases including oxygen but these gases are in little volume.

2. It is referred to as the Red Planet because of its reddish colour when viewed from the outside (of the planet). This reddish colour is as a result of rusted Iron in the planet's dust particles.

3. It is a desert planet because due to its cold and thin atmosphere, water can't remain on its surface for a long time.

4. Its cloud is made up of oxidized Iron dust. The dust storms in Mars are the largest in the solar system as it can cover the planet for months.

5. It sometimes snows in Mars. But the snow is made up of carbondioxide as compared to water on earth.

6. Mars has the highest Mountain in the solar system. Olympus Mons is 3x bigger than Mount. Everest and it is equally the largest volcano known on any planet in the solar system too.

7. Mars has two moons *winks* named Phobos and Deimos with Phobos destined for destruction due to its short life-span.

8. Mars had water in the past. This is after the discovery of water canals/channels on the planet and also the finding of some rocks that could only form in the presence of water.
Presently, there are traces of of frozen water at the poles and at other locations on the planet.

And Lastly: There are no Aliens on Mars!

If mars soil is red because of oxidation of iron that means most of the oxygen is locked in with the soil, so smashing the right asteroid can transform Mars into a more favorable conditions

Why! cry cry

But wait o . . . it is possible to create a particle accelerator the circumnavigates a great circle along the planet!

It could be the key to finding the graviton!
