Mars is the next planet in the solar system to be located after Earth. It is about 227 million kilometers away from the sun.

It takes about 687 days to orbit the sun.

The surface area of Mars is about a quarter of the Earth, and it's only about a tenth of the volume. In a word, it's a planet much smaller than Earth.

However, the size of the land is about the same. This is because about 70 percent of the Earth is covered with water.

Mars is actually the most likely planet to be inhabited by humans except for Earth. So people have long believed that there will be life on Mars.

When we think of Mars, we often think of a desolate planet covered with sand. Mars, which is covered with sand, often has sand storms. The sandstorms on Mars, caused by the sun's influence, are said to last for months at the longest. The sandstorm contains toxic peroxide, which is said to be fatal if it enters the human body.

There's an interesting fact that we found from Mars exploration. The fact that there is water on Mars. It was discovered by NASA in 2015. Water also exists in liquid form. In the polar regions of Mars, it also exists in the form of ice. If humans could harness the water on Mars, the Mars Migration Project would be a reality, not a dream.





12













Since Mars is the most likely planet to be inhabited by humans except in the solar system, many countries have been exploring Mars so far, but to send a probe to Mars, they have to spend about two years at the closest time to Earth. Otherwise, it takes 780 days for the probe to reach Mars





13













The distance between Mars and Earth is between 55 million and 400 million kilometers. This is because of Mars' orbit.

If you look at the orbit, there's a point where we're getting closer to the Earth, and there's a point where we're getting far.

As the exploration of Mars progressed, the facts described above were revealed and many people dreamed of moving to Mars. And this leads to Mars One for the settlement of Mars.

The project, first launched in 2013, has been popular enough to support more than 200,000 people around the world. The project to move mankind to Mars from 2026, however, turned out to be a fraud. In February 2019, Mars One was eventually officially declared bankrupt by the court.
