Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun.We can see the surface of Mars from the Earth.It is half the size of our planet.The rocks,soil and sky have a red or pink hue(色調(diào)).The red colon was observed by star-gazers throughout history.The ancient Romans named the planet"Mars"after their god of war because of its red color.The ancient Egyptians named it "Her Descher"meaning the red one.
