ASTRONOMY :

The planet Mars is a planet close to ours in several points. The inclination of its axis of rotation is 25.2, compared to 23.5 for that of the earth, which makes one day on Mars almost equivalent to a day on Earth.

Mars also has seasons, summer autumn, spring and winter. But the distance between the planet and the Sun and a very thin atmosphere keeps the planet cold, where temperatures are around -60º Celsius. Water is also found on Mars.

The reddish colour of Mars is due to the sand which is composed of sulphur oxide.
Mars is a very volcanic planet. One of the most volcanic planets. This effectively corrobores the notion of detonation that is associated with Mars.
