The rover Curiosity found the key ingredients for life in rock samples. Also, the presence of methane on the planet indicates the possibility for life today. There is a strong possibility that Mars used to be Earth-like and may even have bacteria and micro-organisms surviving under the surface. ]]> 2016-12-15 17:22:36 UTC https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/143901541 8008198 https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144095294 Mars has two moons named Phobos and Deimos. They are both relatively small. Below is a picture of Phobos.]]> 2016-12-16 17:01:17 UTC https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144095294 8008198 https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144095588 There is frozen water on Mars. Underneath the ground they have deposits of ice and frozen ice on the North and South Poles of ice. Weather there is liquid water or not is debatable. ]]> 2016-12-16 17:02:36 UTC https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144095588 8008198 https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144096227 Mars has the largest volcano in the entire solar system, Olympus Mons. It may or may not still be active. We know it was at one point because of the lava tubes it created under Mars surface. These lava tubes might lead to the possibility of humans inhabiting Mars in the future. The tubes would be used as shelter from the radiation on Mars surface.]]> 2016-12-16 17:04:54 UTC https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144096227 8008198 https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144097227 Mars is the 2nd smallest planet in the solar system. It's smaller than Earth but bigger than Mercury with a radius of 2,106 miles.]]> 2016-12-16 17:09:08 UTC https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144097227 8008198 https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144098328 Mars has a very thin atmosphere that is mostly carbon dioxide (90%). Based on the evidence we have today, it had a thicker atmosphere at one point that eroded away. ]]> 2016-12-16 17:13:09 UTC https://padlet.com/8008198/ydggprd7cclj/wish/144098328
