Mars is the red and fourth planet in our Solar System and was named after the Roman God of War. Mankind has always taken a great interest in Mars due to its close distance and science fiction depicts us living on Mars in the future some day. There is also a popular idea in the 19th century that Mars was populated by intelligent Martians but explorations had shown that the planet looked inhabitable.
NASA’s Phoenix Spacecraft is the latest mission to explore the planet Mars which had just landed in a Martian Arctic site just days ago. It will begin a three month site examination to see whether frozen water would exist in the cold part of the planet Mars.
