Mars Day: Planet of Power
2
zodiac signs are assigned to Mars: Aries and Scorpio.
The red planet has been a symbol of power and dominance since ancient times - in astrology it stands for activity and energy.
Mars is
1.5
times as far from the sun * than Earth: 228 million kilometers.
Counted from the sun it is the fourth planet in the solar system and the outermost neighbor of the earth, distance: approx. 350 million kilometers.
The force of gravity is
2/3
stronger than gravity on Mars, which has only about ten percent of the earth's mass.
This allows you to jump further and weighs only 1/3.
Frosty temperatures on Mars - on average -63 degrees
105
degrees is roughly the temperature difference between day - where it can be up to 20 degrees warm - and night (-85 degrees).
The mean temperature is around -63 degrees.
In 1695
the Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens drew the first map of Mars - and the question of possible life arose.
It was 3.7
billion years ago that the Jezero crater, explored by the Mars rover Perseverance, was a lake fed by a small river.
In 1608, when the Dutchman * Hans Liperskeley invented the telescope, no one dared to dream of such knowledge.
Mars and Earth in comparison
The surface of the planet is
144
million square kilometers.
This makes it less than the total area of the Pacific (166.24 million square kilometers).
The southern hemisphere is a huge highland that is on average two to three kilometers above global zero.
26
kilometers high - that's the summit!
Compared to Olympus Mons, our Mount Everest looks like a hill at just under nine kilometers.
SpaceX: One million people are expected to live on Mars by 2074
In 1932
the Mars chocolate bar came on the market, developed by Forrest Mars.
The sweet snack has around 80 kcal less per 100 grams than a yogurette - 452 kcal to 535 kcal.
By 2074
- that is, in 53 years - one million people should already be living on Mars.
At least that's the plans of the private space company SpaceX *, owned by Elon Musk (Tesla).
As a precaution in case we have destroyed the earth.
