What Has Been Discovered on Mars? The Red Planet’s Geography

Mars harbours lots of mysteries and stark contrasts. Endless barren stretches of rocky wasteland lie next to tremendously high volcanoes, and the planet’s surface in general bears witness to countless collisions in the distant past, with gigantic canyons and craters as their solid reminder. A rarefied atmosphere is saturated with minuscule particles of rusty sand, with strong winds swirling it in continuous furious sand storms. This is what Mars is like – a mysterious and forbidding planet.
