Matthew-MARS!!!!

**__MARS __** Mars is named after the romen god of war.It has two moons and it's the 4th planet from the sun.

Mars is made of stardust, rocks, ice and water. The reason why Mars is red because of all the rich iron and carbon monoxide. The polor ice cap [water] is a exaple of just how cold it really is if water gets on it's surface it freezes in a blink of an eye maybe faster.

The largest volcano on Mars is Mt Olympus standing at 900kms up [560miles] high making Mt Everest look small and weak.
