mars is the fourth planet from the sun and is commonly known as the red planets. the rocks, soil and sky of it are a little red or pink. its name was given by the romans in honor of their god of war.
people on the earth need oxygen to breathe. there is almost no oxygen on mars. living on mars would be like living on a very high mountain. there would be little air. it might be 50 degrees above zero at noon and 100 degrees below zero at night. we know that mars has carbon. through a telescope, mars looks red. in some places, it seems gray. at times the gray turns gray-green, then brown, then gray again. the gray-green may be a kind of plant color which changes with the seasons.
