Mars
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun in the Solar System and is often called the "Red Planet" due to its reddish appearance, caused by iron oxide on its surface. Mars has a thin atmosphere, primarily composed of carbon dioxide, and features the largest volcano and canyon in the Solar System, Olympus Mons and Valles Marineris. It has two small moons, Phobos and Deimos. Mars has been a major target for exploration as it may have once harbored conditions suitable for life. For more information, see Mars - Wikipedia.
