Olympus Mons • Olympus Mons is 10x larger than the biggest volcano on earth. • It has been dormant for millions of years. • Olympus Mons is the biggest in the solar system. • The reason its so big because crust falls and dries to make it so big!
Climate • The weather is very unpredictable. • It’s very windy everyday. One week it’s a sunny day, then the next it would be in the the negative 70s to the high negative 146. NASA can’t take a trip to Mars until they know more about the climate.
Human Exploration • In the future we hope humans can go to Mars. Mars lacks an ozone layer which protects us from ultra violot rays that could hurt us.
Mar’s biography • In 1877 an astronomer named Asaph Hall found two moons on August 15, 16, 20, and 21.The currently accepted theory is planets formed 4.5 billion years ago. The planets formed when an enormous cloud of dust and gas that the particles had gravitation that formed planets!
