By midday, the sun was so strong that Jim could not go any further. There were no trees near the path, so he took shelter under a big rock. After drinking the rest of his water, he took off his shirt and rolled it into a pillow. Then he lay down on the ground and went to sleep.

Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second smallest planet in the Solar System, after Mercury. It is often referred to as the “Red Planet” because the iron oxide prevalent on its surface gives it a reddish appearance. Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features that look like the craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of the Earth.

   The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Mars are likewise similar to those of the Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano and second highest known mountain in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest valleys in the Solar System. The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 40% of the planet and may be a giant impact feature. Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos, which are small and irregularly shaped. These may be captured asteroids, similar to 5261 Eureka, a Mars trojan.
